error: undefined reference to `cv::imread(std::string const&, int)'

Question

I'm new to Qt and I have a project that needs to configure OpenCV in Qt , I tried to run a simple code in Qt but I got this error "undefined reference to cv::imread(std::string const&, int)" and here is my code...

#include "opencv2/imgproc/imgproc.hpp"
#include "opencv2/highgui/highgui.hpp"

using namespace cv;

int main(){
Mat src,gray;
src=imread("C:/Users/user/Desktop/wood-pattern.png",1);
imshow("gg",src);
cvWaitKey(0);
return 0;
}

and my source.pro is

I saw all the answers about but they didn't work. my Qt is 32bit and my Windows is 64bit. I think my configuration is wrong. I followed many tutorial but they weren't for OpenCV 2.4.9 so please help me ...

Solution

See output of pkg-config opencv --libs to find out what libraries you're missing, then add them to your config.

For me, the full list of libraries is

/usr/lib64/libopencv_calib3d.so.2.4.8
/usr/lib64/libopencv_contrib.so.2.4.8
/usr/lib64/libopencv_core.so.2.4.8
/usr/lib64/libopencv_features2d.so.2.4.8
/usr/lib64/libopencv_flann.so.2.4.8
/usr/lib64/libopencv_gpu.so.2.4.8
/usr/lib64/libopencv_highgui.so.2.4.8
/usr/lib64/libopencv_imgproc.so.2.4.8
/usr/lib64/libopencv_legacy.so.2.4.8
/usr/lib64/libopencv_ml.so.2.4.8
/usr/lib64/libopencv_nonfree.so.2.4.8    # you don't have this one
/usr/lib64/libopencv_objdetect.so.2.4.8
/usr/lib64/libopencv_photo.so.2.4.8      # this one
/usr/lib64/libopencv_stitching.so.2.4.8  # this one
/usr/lib64/libopencv_superres.so.2.4.8   # and this one
/usr/lib64/libopencv_ts.a
/usr/lib64/libopencv_video.so.2.4.8

actually my code just need highgui and imgpro library.Is it important that my windows is 64bit and qt is 32bit ? what should I exactly write in source.pro? should I add dll.a libs?

As far as you compile in 32, your libraries have to be 32 bits, too
