install opencv 3.4.1 and Qt 5.10 with CMAKE - qt

Question

I install Qt 5.10 latest version and opencv3.4.1 and I couldn't install the library in this version of Qt with Cmake can anybody help me to do it on my windows 10 64-bit please?
I tried with this video also
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZOSu-2Oju-A
and in cmd step I have this (picture in this link)
in this link also (( https://wiki.qt.io/How_to_setup_Qt_and_openCV_on_Windows )) I do all steps carefully but I didn't found the folder bin in opencv-build after do the steps and My OS is windows 10 64-bit thanks for help.

Answer 1

Note: I'm basing my answer more on [SO]: openCV mingw-32 error in cmd (the tools versions mentioned in the posted .pdf)
1. Preliminary considerations
At the beginning, I tried to build it using what I already had on my machine (Win 10):
CMake 3.6.4 (bundled by Android Studio - that I didn't updated for months BTW), cmdline - as there's no GUI
MinGW7.2.0 (that I built on my machine for a different task)
g++ 7.2.0
OpenCV 3.4.2 (downloaded [GitHub]: opencv/opencv - opencv-3.4.2.zip, specifically for this task)
The build process passed this stage (well, it failed somewhere below this point, I didn't check why exactly).
Anyway, I thought that the build env that I used, and the suggested one were too far away, so I:
Downloaded CMake 3.6.3 Win x64 bundle (that contains cmake-gui - as cmdline can be a pain, especially for those that are not used to it)
Used MinGW 5.3.0 (part of my Qt installation)
g++ 5.3.0
The problem at its core (as specified in comments, or Googleing the error) is that the g++ compiler doesn't use the C++11 standard (and protobuf source code requires it). So, I did a little test: pasted the faulty code in a file (and added a dummy main), and tried it with the 2 MinGW installations.
code00.cpp:
template <typename char_type>
bool null_or_empty(const char_type *s) {
return (s == nullptr) || (*s == 0);
}
int main() {
return 0;
}

As seen, the older g++ needs -std=c++0x explicitly.
Following the build steps, I got the same error as in the image below (I launched mingw32-make directly in protobuf's dir, to skip all the other stuff built before it):
2. Solutions
Both are done at cmake-gui level. After setting the paths:
Hit "Configure"
Do the required variable changes
Hit "Generate"
Launch mingw32-make from console, in the build dir
Notes:
Since I'm very far away from being a CMake expert, before doing this, I empty the build dir to make sure that there's nothing left from previous build (of course the drawback is that everything is done again, which usually takes a long time)
Since I didn't enable parallel build, I didn't wait for the full build to finish (as it takes forever), but just checked that it passes this point
2.1 Force C++11 standard
Click "Add Entry" and set [CMake 3.1]: CXX_STANDARD:
And below, notice that the build passed point where it was failing before:
2.2 Skip Protobuf build
Notes:
In the posted movie, there's no Protobuf build attempted (probably it's not in the bundle?) that's why this error didn't pop up
I don't know what functionality will not be available in the final build, as I don't know what Protobuf is used at
I consider this more like a workaround
Search for Protobuf related variables, and uncheck any that are in the BUILD or WITH groups (the blue lines):
And again the effect is below - the Protobuf build no longer takes place (it comes just after libIlmImf):
