Converting cv::Mat to IplImage*
- by amr
The documentation on this seems incredibly spotty.
I've basically got an empty array of IplImage*s (IplImage** imageArray) and I'm calling a function to import an array of cv::Mats - I want to convert my cv::Mat into an IplImage* so I can copy it into the array.
Currently I'm trying this:
while(loop over cv::Mat array)
{
IplImage* xyz = &(IplImage(array[i]));
cvCopy(iplimagearray[i], xyz);
}
Which generates a segfault.
Also trying:
while(loop over cv::Mat array)
{
IplImage* xyz;
xyz = &array[i];
cvCopy(iplimagearray[i], xyz);
}
Which gives me a compile time error of:
error: cannot convert ‘cv::Mat*’ to ‘IplImage*’ in assignment
Stuck as to how I can go further and would appreciate some advice :)
