I am trying to run BRIEF_demo-0.5 on my linux environment.. As instructed in the read me file i change my directory to the file BRIEF_demo-0.5 and typed make but i got the following errors..
g++ `pkg-config opencv --libs` main.o BRIEF.o -o BRIEF_demo

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [BRIEF_demo] Error 1
so... as instructed i one of the posts i tried the command g++ main.cpp BRIEF.cpp -lm -lml -lcvaux -lhighgui -lcv -lcxcore and i got
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lml
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lcvaux
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lhighgui
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lcv
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lcxcore
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
when i type pkg-config opencv --libs --cflags i am getting -I/usr/local/include/opencv -I/usr/local/include -L/usr/local/lib -lopencv_core -lopencv_imgproc -lopencv_highgui -lopencv_ml -lopencv_video -lopencv_features2d -lopencv_calib3d -lopencv_objdetect -lopencv_contrib -lopencv_legacy -lopencv_flann
please help...
