MacOS support without commercial release? #526

Open Szpoti opened 3 years ago

Szpoti commented 3 years ago

Description

As I was trying to implement webcamera usage in our open source, cross-platform project based on the guide, I was bumping into problems, so I dived deeper into the EmguCV wiki. Then I realized this one sentence on the installation guide page:

Emgu CV for Mac OS is available under our commercial license.

Also, under the change log of the upcoming 4.5.2 release, you may read

  • Add Emgu.CV.Platform.Mac.dll into Emgu.CV.runtime.macos nuget pacakge

Conclusion

There is no Emgu.CV.runtime.macos package in the NuGet manager, will this be added with the new release or this is only available with the commecial release? Does this mean that there is no way to implement Mat, VideoCapture and QRCodeDetector into a cross-platform application to make it work on MacOS without it?

That is right.

Emgu.CV.runtime.macos nuget package is only available with a commercial license purchase at this moment.
