Ubuntu14.04 + opencv2.4.11 + python environment configuration

Go to OpenCV's website to download the OPENCV version you need and download the Linux version.

Then natively compiled, the compilation of the GCC CMake version is a requirement.

According to the tutorial above, the compilation is not cv2.so, it is because the cmake option is not correct when compiling.

CD OpenCV

mkdir Release

CD release

cmake-d cmake_build_type=release-d cmake_install_prefix=/usr/local-d BUILD_NEW_PYTHON_ support=on-d Build_examples=on:  

make  

make all

So after a long compilation, you will have cv2.so this library file in/usr/local/lib/site-packages, so python can be imported cv2 to import OpenCV this library.
