Buidling Sample Code does not work

[feynnon]

Hi,

I followed the instructions in https://github.com/econsystems/opencv/blob/master/Documents/OpenCV_Installation_Linux_Manual_v1.3.pdf on Ubuntu 18.04 and installed the openCV version 3.3.1.

After installation to /usr/local/lib, I want to test it by Building the Sample Code.

I run the following command:
econ_opencv/Source/OpenCVCam$ sudo make

And it fails for me with the following code:

~/PycharmProjects/econ_opencv/Source/OpenCVCam$ sudo make

Could you help me solve this issue?

hi Dehde,
From the make error show it seems the opencv builded without econsys videoio patch.Before building copy and paste the videoio module provided in the package.

[TL-4319]

Have you able to resolve this issue? I follow the suggested solution by replacing the videoio in the normal opencv source and build but the issue persist. It seems like there is another opencv being installed on my machine and make is referencing the actual opencv instead of the install with econ patch.
