First of all you need tesseract dependencies (leptonica + its dependencies). You can compile it by yourself, but in this case you need to install mingw+msys environment... than you need to compile tesseract library.
In past I was successful in using leptonica library build by VC++ ( leptonica-1.68-win32-lib-include-dirs.zip<http://code.google.com/p/leptonica/downloads/detail?name=leptonica-1.68-win32-lib-include-dirs.zip>) within QT Creator (with mingw), but as far as I know it is not correct way... Maybe during weekend I can try to publish needed libs + include file, maybe example QT4 project for using tesseract api (without QT4 dependencies)... -- Zdenko On Thu, Aug 23, 2012 at 8:58 PM, Milan <[email protected]> wrote: > Windows 7, and using QT Creator. > > > On Thursday, August 23, 2012 8:17:07 PM UTC+2, zdenop wrote: > >> What OS + IDE are you using? >> -- >> Zdenko >> >> On Thu, Aug 23, 2012 at 7:30 PM, Milan <[email protected]> wrote: >> >>> Thank you all for the answers. >>> >>> Zdenko I have a really beginners question, what are all the steps I need >>> to take so I can start working on something similar to the application you >>> showed me[1].
