Make master compatible with both OpenCV 2 and 3 #20

Closed gitanat closed 7 years ago

If possible, we should merge the opencv3 branch back into master in a way that makes it work for both versions. CI needs to be configured to test both.

@RedFantom 's comment:

Edit: using cv2.version, it is possible to retrieve a version number in str format, but the python-opencv package from the Ubuntu repositories provides $Rev 4227 as version number instead of 3.x.x or 2.x.x, so that complicates things.

I'm getting '2.4.9.1' on Debian stable (Jessie), so this might Ubuntu-specific. It's annoying, but I guess we can hardcode specific values for the Ubuntu versions we know for now.

Well, the one in the Ubuntu repositories is OpenCV 2, so instead of checking for OpenCV 2, we should check for OpenCV 3. I have changed this behaviour in my commits to versions-branch on my fork of the repository. It's ready for merging after #18.

True, it's cv 2.4 even for Ubuntu 16.10. I've merged #18, feel free to rebase and submit a PR

This issue can be closed, right? We've got OpenCV 3 support and OpenCV 2 support at the same time :) .

True - thanks!
