opencv- default build settings

[nano]

Dear Community,

when building openvino from source it automatically installs opencv. The build of opencv is highly customizable. I have my own opencv build that includes parts of opencv-contrib. To make sure I link opencv correctly to openvino, what are the default build settings openvino uses for opencv?

Cheers,

Greetings,

By default, the required version of OpenCV packages is downloaded automatically by the CMake-based script. If you already have one installed OpenCV/ already configured in your env, you may need to clean the  OpenCV_DIR environment variables before running the cmake command, otherwise they will not be downloaded and the build may fail if incompatible versions were installed.

If the CMake-based build script can not find and download the OpenCV package that is supported on your platform, or if you want to use a custom build of the OpenCV library, refer to the Use Custom OpenCV Builds section for details.

You may refer to this wiki for further info: https://github.com/openvinotoolkit/openvino/wiki/BuildingForLinux
