opencv vs 2010 dependencies issue - c++

Question

I am having an issue with trying to setup opencv 2.4.6 with visual studio ultimate 2010 on a 64-bit windows 8 machine. I know to add in the includes and dll references, but when I execute the code I have it shows this huge external linking error:
code:
#include "opencv2/highgui/highgui.hpp"
#include <iostream>
using namespace cv;
using namespace std;
int main( int argc, const char** argv )
{
Mat img = imread("mypic.JPG", CV_LOAD_IMAGE_UNCHANGED); //read the image data in the file "MyPic.JPG" and store it in 'img'
if (img.empty()) //check whether the image is loaded or not
{
cout << "Error : Image cannot be loaded..!!" << endl;
//system("pause"); //wait for a key press
return -1;
}
namedWindow("MyWindow", CV_WINDOW_AUTOSIZE); //create a window with the name "MyWindow"
imshow("MyWindow", img); //display the image which is stored in the 'img' in the "MyWindow" window
waitKey(0); //wait infinite time for a keypress
destroyWindow("MyWindow"); //destroy the window with the name, "MyWindow"
return 0;
}
and the error is:

I did try adding the .lib files in the additional dependencies, but vs2010 said it does not detect them, since I did see another post with a problem just like mine. The include directory includes the generic "include" folder along with the opencv and opencv2 folders. I then added the build\x64\vc10\lib, bin and staticlib to the additional lib dirs. The opencv was also extracted to just the c:\ drive so there should not be any problem there. I thank everyone in advance for your help!

Answer 1

just replace:
opencv_highgui243.lib
on:
opencv_highgui243d.lib

Answer 2

Probably, you have included release libraries instead of debug versions.
Because you have built in debug mode, libraries should also be of debug version like:
opencv_highgui243d.lib
instead of
opencv_highgui243.lib
