How to migrate the code to Linux?

[Yishun99]

Can you provide some idea for migrating the code/compilation to Linux?

I tried and got stuck. It seems the repo has been abandoned.

for me it works perfectly under ubuntu linux. first you need to install the opencv either from the website or from the repo using sudo apt install libopencv-dev then you should be able to mex using mex -lmwlapack -lopencv_core -lopencv_highgui -lopencv_imgproc generateEllipseCandidates.cpp in case of questions feel free to ask.

ah, I forgot one thing... I had to add using namespace std; in the generateEllipseCandidates.cpp file, e.g. just after using namespace cv; (line 17)

@maaaaadn Where are what mex command from? Matlab? If so what version?

What does the ouput of which mex?

[maaaaadn]

@guysoft , the mex command is a matlab command yes. I'm currently running matlab R2019b which mex gives me built-in (/usr/local/MATLAB/R2019b/toolbox/matlab/general/mex) note, /usr/local/MATLAB/R2019b/ is my matlab root directory.

I have successfully ported to Ubuntu 20.04 and Opencv4.5.5, you can download my compiled mexa64 file from my repository and try it out：https://github.com/liang-zijian/High-quality-ellipse-detection-ubuntu20
