This folder contains libraries and headers of a few very popular still image codecs used by highgui. The libraries and headers are only to build Win32 and Win64 versions of OpenCV. On UNIX systems all the libraries are automatically detected by configure script. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ libjpeg 6b (6.2) - The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG software. Copyright (C) 1994-1997, Thomas G. Lane. See IGJ home page http://www.ijg.org for details and links to the source code HAVE_JPEG preprocessor flag must be set to make highgui use libjpeg. On UNIX systems configure script takes care of it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ libpng 1.2.29 - Portable Network Graphics library. Copyright (C) 1998-2001, Glenn Randers-Pehrson. See libpng home page http://www.libpng.org for details and links to the source code HAVE_PNG preprocessor flag must be set to make highgui use libpng. On UNIX systems configure script takes care of it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ libtiff 3.7.2 - Tag Image File Format (TIFF) Software Copyright (c) 1988-1997 Sam Leffler Copyright (c) 1991-1997 Silicon Graphics, Inc. See libtiff home page http://www.libtiff.org for details and links to the source code HAVE_TIFF preprocessor flag must be set to make highgui use libtiff. On UNIX systems configure script takes care of it. In this build support for ZIP (LZ77 compression), JPEG and LZW are included. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ zlib 1.2.3 - General purpose LZ77 compression library Copyright (C) 1995-2002 Jean-loup Gailly and Mark Adler. See zlib home page http://www.gzip.org/zlib for details and links to the source code No preprocessor definition is needed to make highgui use this library - it is included automatically if either libpng or libtiff are used. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ jasper-1.900.1 - JasPer is a collection of software (i.e., a library and application programs) for the coding and manipulation of images. This software can handle image data in a variety of formats. One such format supported by JasPer is the JPEG-2000 format defined in ISO/IEC 15444-1. Copyright (c) 1999-2000 Image Power, Inc. Copyright (c) 1999-2000 The University of British Columbia Copyright (c) 2001-2003 Michael David Adams The JasPer license can be found in src/libjasper. OpenCV on Windows uses pre-built libjasper library (lib/libjasper*). To get the latest source code, please, visit the project homepage: http://www.ece.uvic.ca/~mdadams/jasper/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ openexr-1.4.0 - OpenEXR is a high dynamic-range (HDR) image file format developed by Industrial Light & Magic for use in computer imaging applications. Copyright (c) 2004, Industrial Light & Magic, a division of Lucasfilm Entertainment Company Ltd. Portions contributed and copyright held by others as indicated. All rights reserved. The project homepage: http://www.openexr.com/ OpenCV on Windows does not include openexr codec by default. To add it, you will need to recompile highgui with OpenEXR support using VS.NET2003 or VS.NET2005 (MSVC6 can not compile it): 1) download binaries (e.g. openexr-1.4.0-vs2005.zip) from the official site. 2) copy half.lib, iex.lib, ilmimf.lib ilmthread.lib imath.lib to _graphics/lib 3) copy include/openexr/*.h to _graphics/include/openexr 4) open _make/opencv.sln 5) in highgui/_highgui.h uncomment #define HAVE_ILMIMF 1 6) build debug/release configurations of highgui. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ffmpeg-0.5.0 - FFmpeg is a complete, cross-platform solution to record, convert and stream audio and video. It includes libavcodec - the leading audio/video codec library, and also libavformat, libavutils and other helper libraries that are used by OpenCV (in highgui module) to read and write video files.

All rights reserved. http://www.netlib.org/lapack/ http://www.netlib.org/clapack/ Note, that only a subset of package is used in OpenCV. It can be extended and/or replaced with future upstream releases in the future. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
