Description:

OpenCV nowadays has advanced highgui features wich are based on QT: http://docs.opencv.org/modules/highgui/doc/qt_new_functions.html
But for that purpose it has to be build with the CMake-switch WITH_QT, which is not the case for the current package.
Would it be possible to add this feature to the official packages with an optional dependency to QT, so you don't have to build it yourself if you want to use this nice functionality?
This task depends upon

Yes, it might just be possible. I never got around to test whether the feature would be link-level (in which case, I'd have to pick between giving users both GUIs or sacrifice one or the other). The OpenCV build system was also never clear about this. I will take a look.

  • Field changed: Severity (Low → Medium)
  • Field changed: Priority (Normal → Low)
Sorry for being so fast with this. Anyway I finally took a look and it is not possible to have both at a time since highgui is linked against the toolkit. I will split a qt build on a near future release, so I'm keeping this open.
