Hi Folks,
I have a project in mind that I'd like to run on my new
Raspberry Pi 3.
Essentially a security camera that will only record when it
detects changes between frames.
Now, this is already a solved problem I believe, however in
the interest of learning I want to do it myself.
Ideally, I'd compare two images using the OpenCV library, and
ideally I'd do that from D code.
However, there exists no OpenCV binding for D that I can find.
Is there a technical reason for this?
I understand the OpenCV C api is quite old and dated, and it's
recommended to use the C++ one as a result.
On that, where is C++ / D linkage at?
I know very little about linking the two, but it's something
I'd like to learn more about and see this as an opportunity
for that - before I sink a load of time into it, however, it'd
be good to know if it's even feasibly possible to do so.
Thanks!
It's quite easy to write bindings for libraries that have a C
interface (ie most), if only a bit boring.
That's the thing, it doesn't have a C interface (or more
correctly, it's modern versions don't have a C interface as it
has been deprecated since I think version 2.4. OpenCV is at 3.4
now).
I was wondering if there was any difficulties interfacing D to
the C++ API?
