Java wrapper for the DLib library
There is 3 projects:
resources
: it provided the Resource
abstraction which is used in order to load files (either from a JAR or from files)models
: it contains DLibModels
and OpenCVModels
which can be used in order to use models for these two libraries (some are embeded into the assembled JAR, some should be located on the filesystem)dlib
: it's the actual wrapperdlib
projectIt's recommended using SWIG in order to make binding (at least in Java).
In the src/main/native
folder, you'll find:
include
folder which contains the .h
headers of the .cpp
C++ filesswig
folder which contains the .i
interfaces.cpp
files which contains Building the dlib-java
wrapper is quite simple (because it's driven by Maven), but there is some requirements which need to be fulfilled.
You'll need to install:
make
, gcc
, swig
and wget
). Once OpenCV has been installed on you're system, we need to make the JAR
availabled to Maven by running:
mvn install:install-file \
-Dfile=/usr/share/java/opencv4/opencv-420.jar" \
-DgroupId="opencv" \
-DartifactId="opencv" \
-Dversion="4.2.0" \
-Dpackaging="jar"
We also should ensure that:
/usr/lib/libopencv_java420.so
shared libary is present;/usr/include/opencv4
includes are presents. Once installed, you should ensure that:
/usr/lib/libdlib.so
shared library is present;/usr/include/dlib
includes are presents. The JAR can be installed in your local Maven repository using make install
. It may take some time: it will compile OpenCV and DLib... So be ready to wait some time!
