OpenCV has stopped supporting Legacy Code #542

Open jayrambhia opened 11 years ago

jayrambhia commented 11 years ago

On the GitHub source of OpenCV, it seems that they have stopped supporting Python Legacy cv module and SimpleCV uses it for almost all of the functions. We need to move to cv2 as soon as possible.

Most definitely agree. I had read your blog post on this was well. There is a lot of gutting that needs to happen to SimpleCV for 2.0, my guess is it may not be backward compatible with 1.x.

jayrambhia commented 11 years ago

@xamox I have started working on it. More than 50% is complete. I will make a wiki page changes that are really important. https://github.com/jayrambhia/SimpleCV/tree/2.0/cv2merge

@jayrambhia Getting started on your pullrequest and moving forward. thanks

jayrambhia commented 10 years ago

@frac Before you start working on it, take a look at https://github.com/jayrambhia/SimpleCV2 and https://github.com/sightmachine/SimpleCV/pull/578 . During Google Summer of Code 2013, we worked on the port. It's 70-80 % complete.

@jayrambhia I did :) I'm using that as a base.

xamox commented 10 years ago

@jayrambhia Sorry for not getting to this sooner. We actually had a discussion about starting on SimpleCV 2.0 yesterday and of course moving everything over to cv2 will be part of that. What I can do for now is I will merge this into another branch called cv2 for now until I've had a little more time to test it and then it can get merged back into the main branch.

This is old... is this still an issue?

Is it possible to compile the legacy module outside the opencv3 source directory, like we do with opencv_contrib extra modules?
