compiling opencv gives error about javacpp-presets HOT 6 CLOSED

Right, that seems to be a bug in OpenCV... I guess we'll have to create a patch for that. Would you be able to look into this? Thanks!

why not.Yes i can test

@saudet Why do you think it is a bug in OpenCV?

I did a little experiment. The linker complains about

cv::DetectionBasedTracker::Parameters::Parameters(void)

I when to the downloaded header detection_based_tracker.hpp and commented out constructor in struct Parameters that was a potential problem:

        struct Parameters
        {
            int maxTrackLifetime;
            int minDetectionPeriod; 
//            Parameters();
        };

Then I run clean and install -projects .,opencv. Now the build completed without errors (not counting some eror character in in comments in persistance.hpp that I corrected too).
The thing that I do not understand is that in both cases (with and without Parameters(); commented) the generated wrapper code was almost the same. Not counting different comment and order of declarations the class for Parameters was almost identical. Original:

        @NoOffset public static class Parameters extends Pointer {
            static { Loader.load(); }
            public Parameters(Pointer p) { super(p); }
            public Parameters(int size) { allocateArray(size); }
            private native void allocateArray(int size);
            @Override public Parameters position(int position) {
                return (Parameters)super.position(position);
            }

            public native int maxTrackLifetime(); public native Parameters maxTrackLifetime(int maxTrackLifetime);
            public native int minDetectionPeriod(); public native Parameters minDetectionPeriod(int minDetectionPeriod); //the minimal time between run of the big object detector (on the whole frame) in ms (1000 mean 1 sec), default=0

            public Parameters() { allocate(); }
            private native void allocate();
        }

and with Parameters(); commented (order of declarations rearranged to match above):

        public static class Parameters extends Pointer {
            static { Loader.load(); }
            public Parameters(Pointer p) { super(p); }
            public Parameters(int size) { allocateArray(size); }
            private native void allocateArray(int size);
            @Override public Parameters position(int position) {
                return (Parameters)super.position(position);
            }

            public native int maxTrackLifetime(); public native Parameters maxTrackLifetime(int maxTrackLifetime);
            public native int minDetectionPeriod(); public native Parameters minDetectionPeriod(int minDetectionPeriod); //the minimal time between run of the big object detector (on the whole frame) in ms (1000 mean 1 sec), default=0

            public Parameters() { allocate(); }
            private native void allocate();
//            Parameters();
        }

The only difference is @NoOffset annotation (no idea what that actually does).

Can we just fix the issue by commenting out Parameters(); in detection_based_tracker.hpp? When pre-build binaries are used this should have no impact at run-time.

@jduke32 Can you check out if commenting out Parameters(); works for you?

@jpsacha Thanks for starting to look into this! It's a bug in OpenCV because it doesn't give us access to the cv::DetectionBasedTracker::Parameters::Parameters() constructor defined in the .cpp file. Maybe we have to put CV_EXPORT on the nested class as well? I'm not sure what MSVC expects, but something like that is what needs to be adjusted.

I create PR that adds building OpenCV binaries from source on Windows, as it is done on other platforms. Before the build two patches are applied to correct issues that were breaking creation of wrappers. One reported earlier, and one more found later. You will need to install Visual Studio 2013 (community edition works) and Windows version of CMake to generate Visual Studio project correctly.

Works fine for me, tested with some sample code from the Cookbook Examples.

Fix included in version 1.0. Thanks @jpsacha for the fix and the build!! 👍
