Description

Setting WITH_WIN32UI in CMake should result in a preprocessor flag named HAVE_WIN32UI, but somehow this does not happen with OpenCV 2.4.5 and Visual Studio 2010 under Windows 8.

See

for more details and a fix.

WITH_WIN32UI cmake option enables standard Win32 API for GUI check (Window Management + GDI). Cmake tries to find them by building cmake/checks/win32uitest.cpp check. If build was not successful cmake turn off HAVE_WIN32UI flag. I check your issue on my virtual machine with Win8 and Visual Studio 2012 and buildbot builders (htpp://build.opencv.org) with Windows. All pass highgui tests and show windows. It means that HAVE_WIN32UI is setup properly.

Check your cmake output. Check, that you have string like this: "Win32 UI: YES". If it reports no then headers or libs are missing. Check, that you have Windows Platform SDK installed on your system.

thanks for all that detailled info !

had the same problem on xp / vs2008 / opencv2.4.9

"cl cmake/checks/win32uitest.cpp user23.lib gdi32.lib"
compiled fine on the console, but try_compile in cmake always failed,
even if i removed all the code from the testprog and the CFLAG line with the libs.
same problem with vfwtest.cpp, btw.

so i started to suspect an issue with cmake itself, updated from 2.8.0 to 2.8.11.1, -

voila! problem solved.

Video for Windows: YES
Win32 UI: YES

Hello. For me, the bug still persists :(

I'm using Windows7 64 bit and cmake-2.8.11.2. It errors out with:

CMake Error at cmake/OpenCVFindLibsGUI.cmake:8 (TRY_COMPILE):
  Failed to open

    /CMakeFiles/CMakeTmp/CMakeFiles/CMakeTmp/CMakeLists.txt

  No such file or directory
Call Stack (most recent call first):
  CMakeLists.txt:397 (include)

CMake Error at cmake/OpenCVFindLibsVideo.cmake:7 (TRY_COMPILE):
  Failed to open

    /CMakeFiles/CMakeTmp/CMakeFiles/CMakeTmp/CMakeLists.txt

  No such file or directory
Call Stack (most recent call first):
  CMakeLists.txt:398 (include)

This happens with target VS2012 and VS2010 x64 configuration (the ones that are installed). I have to disable WITH_WIN32UI and WITH_VFW for it to being able to generate the project+solution files.

Using the same command line as be rak in a VS command prompt, win32uitest.cpp compiles successfully (same for vfwtest.cpp).

I tried opencv-2.4.6 official download and the 2.4 git branch from yesterday.

I cannot reproduce the issue in my virtual machine with Windows 8 MS Visual Studio 2012 and cmake 2.8.11.1. It looks like it was fixed by Roman's pull request https://github.com/Itseez/opencv/pull/1324/. I close the issue. Fill free to reopen it if you find and problems.
