Building On Linux

First install system dependencies (skip any of the ones you already have installed):

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install build-essential
sudo apt-get install libglfw3
sudo apt-get install libglfw3-dev

Download OpenVino Toolkit version 2022.1

Follow the installation instructions

After install run the OpenVino OpenCV Installer script:

/opt/intel/openvino_2022/extras/scripts/download_opencv.sh

Building With CLion IDE

  1. Open Project/Folder
  2. In Settings Panel in CMake section create a Release Build
  3. For CMake options set the following to ON or OFF based on what you want to build:
    • -DBUILD_EXAMPLES=ON
    • -DBUILD_EDITOR=ON
    • -DBUILD_ENGINE=ON
    • -DBUILD_PLUGINS=ON
  4. Then build all in release

Building From Command Line

if you already have CMake installed but it's < version 3.20, then first remove the old one:

sudo apt remove --purge cmake

then run:

sudo snap install cmake --classic

Now you're ready to build

cd to the source dir then (Change build options as needed):

mkdir Build
cd Build
source /opt/intel/openvino_2022/setupvars.sh
cmake .. -DBUILD_EXAMPLES=ON \
-DBUILD_EDITOR=ON \
-DBUILD_ENGINE=ON \
-DBUILD_PLUGINS=ON \
-DOpenCV_DIR=/opt/intel/openvino_2022/extras/opencv/cmake
cmake --build . --config Release -j 8

** replace -j 8 with your number of CPUs you want to utilize for compiling
