I'm an EMGU/CV noob using using EMGU3.0 (emgucv-windows-universal 3.0.0.2157), Visual Studio 2013, and a target platform of "Any CPU". I'm trying the C# "hello world" app at http://www.emgu.com/wiki/index.php/Hello_World_in_CSharp#Hello_World_-_Version_2 which looks like this:
using Emgu.CV;
using Emgu.CV.CvEnum;
using Emgu.CV.Structure;
using Emgu.CV.UI;
using System.Drawing;
...
//Create a 3 channel image of 400x200
using (Mat img = new Mat(200, 400, DepthType.Cv8U, 3))
{
img.SetTo(new Bgr(255, 0, 0).MCvScalar); // set it to Blue color
//Draw "Hello, world." on the image using the specific font
CvInvoke.PutText(
img,
"Hello, world",
new System.Drawing.Point(10, 80),
FontFace.HersheyComplex,
1.0,
new Bgr(0, 255, 0).MCvScalar);
//Show the image using ImageViewer from Emgu.CV.UI
ImageViewer.Show(img, "Test Window");
}
It builds OK. But when I ran it I got "The type initializer for 'Emgu.CV.MatInvoke' threw an exception." . . . at the line . . .
using (Mat img = new Mat(200, 400, DepthType.Cv8U, 3))
Also, in the output window there's another clue. Just before the exception there's a message about unmanaged modules . . .
No suitable directory found to load unmanaged modules A first chance exception of type 'System.TypeInitializationException' occurred in Emgu.CV.dll
Any idea what's happening here or how to debug it?
Note: There's a question on SO OpenCV Unmanaged DLLs not found asp.net that involves a different error message - "System.DllNotFoundException" under different circumstances, (it also has no accepted answers). That error message is produced by the system but I think the one I'm getting is produced by EMGU itself. But if any ENGU experts see how that applies to mine I'd appreciate it.
