Program cannot run OpenCV even though others can - c++

I am trying to run a program that uses OpenCV and I have gotten it to run on other machines, and other programs on my machine run using it, but this one returns:
programname.cpp: fatal error: opencv/cv.h: No such file or directory
Anyone know how to fix the path or what might be going wrong? I am running Ubuntu 12.04 and OpenCV-2.4.0

Change from:
#include <opencv/cv.h>
to:
#include <opencv2/opencv.hpp>

On my Ubuntu 11.04, the headers are in: */usr/include/opencv-2.3.1/*, I assume it should be */usr/include/opencv-2.4.0/* for you.
You have two solutions:
When you compile, use the -I option: g++ -o [name] [src] -I/usr/include/opencv-2.4.0
Create symbolic links to opencv-2.4.0/opencv and opencv-2.4.0/opencv2 in /usr/include.
The second solution is useful if you're using CMake, because FindOpenCV2 does not look for OpenCV in /usr/include/opencv-2.4.0. I hope this (ugly) hack will solve your problem.

Command line cpp compile isn't working properly

First of all, I made a simple program to test if compiling was working properly, it is as follows:
#include <iostream>
int main() {
std::cout << "Oi!";
}
Quite simple indeed, should compile properly, right? Wrong.
I am using MinGW for Windows 10, just to let you know.
I tried compiling it using "cpp <file name>.cpp -o a.exe" and was, first time, going through with the compile, but once I tried to execute the file it would send me this:
./a.exe: line 14: namespace: command not found
./a.exe: line 20: syntax error near unexpected token `('
./a.exe: line 20: ` typedef decltype(nullptr) nullptr_t;'
Clearly something was wrong, so I searched for a solution, found out someone had a similar problem and doing a reinstall solved it, so I went to the MinGW installation manager, noticed the C++ compiler library wasn't installed and installed it. It felt I was doing alright.
I also noticed that they were using g++ instead of cpp and tried that instead, it worked properly this time, but I would like to note that I have "git bash" installed, so I assume it used "git bash" 's command and not MinGW's.
So I opened cmd and tried using cpp, once I tried executing the program cmd said that the software wasn't compatible with the version of windows being executed, that doesn't sound right. I did a verbose compile with cpp and noticed this oddity:
#include <...> search starts here:
c:\mingw\bin\../lib/gcc/mingw32/6.3.0/include/c++
c:\mingw\bin\../lib/gcc/mingw32/6.3.0/include/c++/mingw32
c:\mingw\bin\../lib/gcc/mingw32/6.3.0/include/c++/backward
c:\mingw\bin\../lib/gcc/mingw32/6.3.0/include
c:\mingw\bin\../lib/gcc/mingw32/6.3.0/../../../../include
c:\mingw\bin\../lib/gcc/mingw32/6.3.0/include-fixed
End of search list.
That doesn't follow Windows's file path standard...
Does it have anything to do with the problems I am facing? I just want things to compile! ;w;
As mentioned above, you need to use g++ to compile your code. Try the command g++ --version If you get any result that doesn't include a version number you need to install g++. Here is a guide that may be helpful.

Can not run make command in Dev-cpp application

I have a very simple example named HelloWorld and located in folder "C:/HelloWorld" in Dev-Cpp as follows:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main(){
cout << "Hello World";
return 0;
}
Of course, if I press F11 (Compile and run) then the program executes normally.
But I want to execute this program in an another way: use make command!!!
I have known that the syntax to run make command : make -f [make file name]. In Dev-Cpp, this command is make -f "Makefile.win". So I jump into HelloWorld folder and type as follows:
The console displays many errors relating to included headers.
How can I run make command without any errors? Thanks in advance.
not so easy with make :)
at first if you use msvc or DevCpp try to find "Export makefile"
at second you need to configure your compilator(s).
at third you need to show what Makefile.win contains.
man:
http://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/make.html
gcc:
https://gcc.gnu.org/install/binaries.html
All right. There are something wrong with my make command.
The problem is I had installed two versions of gcc in my computer. The HelloWorld example is compiled and built with the latest GCC version.
However, the make command I had type is belonged to the older GCC version. As a result, it leads to many errors.
In order to run make command correctly, I must to use the right make command that is defined in Dev-Cpp (below picture): mingw32-make.exe

fatal error: 'libpq++' file not found

I would love to use libpq++ library in my C++ project but I am unable to get it working.
So far, I have installed libpqxx-dev libpqxx-4.0 packages on my Ubuntu 14.04 and provided -llibpq++ to clang++.
However, no matter what I do, I still get following error:
src/serverdata.h:4:10: fatal error: 'libpq++' file not found
It seems that I didn't install libpq++ properly but I don't really see any problem.
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Seems to me, your src/serverdata.h has 4th line like:
#include "libpq++"
If so, change it to something like:
#include <pqxx/basic_connection.hxx>
PS. Files in dev packet are listed here

No such file or directory "ruby/config.h" when trying to compile C++ into Ruby using SWIG

I'm trying to get a basic example running using SWIG to convert a C++ file into Ruby. I have Ruby 2.0.0p451 (64 bit version) installed and I've also installed the 64-bit DevKit. I'm running Windows 7 and trying to use swigwin-2.0.12. Finally, I am using the GCC C++ compiler supplied by Mingw-builds for the 64-bit version of Windows.
I have the basic C++ hello world program as shown below.
#include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>
using namespace std;
main()
{
cout << "Hello World!";
system("pause");
return 0;
}
At the command prompt, I use the command:
swig -module -c++ -ruby hello_world.cpp
This completes fine and produces a file titled hello_world_wrap.cxx. However, when I receive an error when I try to compile the .cxx file using the command:
g++ -fPIC -c hello_world_wrap.cxx -IC:\Ruby200-x64\include\ruby-2.0.0
The error I am receiving is:
All the research I've done has pointed me to an installation of the incorrect DevKit, but I don't think this is my issue. I've made sure to download the 64-bit version of Ruby and the DevKit. I've checked the folder specified in the error, and there is no config.h file. I'm not sure why the config.h file does not exist or why ruby.h is trying to load it.
Any thoughts?
Check that C:\Ruby200-x64\include\ruby-2.0.0\ruby\config.h exists. If not, find it and fix the path.
Update:
Check if there is a ruby.h in the same folder. If there is then just use -IC:\Ruby200-x64\include\ruby-2.0.0\ruby\x64-mingw instead. Otherwise try adding a second -I, for this extra path. I agree with you this is a little strange (not so much the former, but definitely if you have to have two -I). The script at https://groups.google.com/forum/m/#!topic/comp.lang.ruby/RpjuvXpFI30 suggests that this might be normal, I.e. you need one -I for platform-independent headers and one for platform-dependent.

why am i seeing this libzdb configure error?

I am attempting to install libzdb on my macbook however I see the following error message when running the configure:
configure:13334: error: setjmp is required
the setjmp.h file resides within /usr/include and is specified within my "$PATH" as
/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11/bin:/usr/include
Can someone please advise as to how i can rectify this issue?
thanks in advance
I've stumbled across this error while building one of my own programs when I wanted to use setjmp() and longjmp(). For some reason, the toolchain that resides in / on OS X is flawed, and the <setjmp.h> header file is missing the declarations and data types.
To fix it, I had to download Xcode (damn!) and tell the compiler to look for the headers in the freshly installed MacOSX10.7.sdk (or 8) folder:
clang -Wall -o foo foo.c -isysroot /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.7.sdk
ok finally figured it out. For those who have seen messages like this be warned that the configure logs can be misleading. It turned out the binary built fine, however it was failing during runtime because a few mysql libraries could not be found. using the following command *export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/mysql/lib/* would fix the problem
