Integrating MFC C++, Matrox lib and OpenCV

[hhx83]

I'm trying to develop a MFC C++ app. How do you grab frames using Matrox ActiveMIL-lite library, and display using OpenCV where I can then use the image to do face detection?

Hope someone can adivse me on that~

WHy MFC and not C# for a GUI application??

MFC is terribly obsolete and is lousy on the Internet.

Because the face detection functions for OpenCV only comes in C/C++. And since MFC at least allow me to create some UI rather nothing using Win32 Console. Moreover, I need to use Matrox ActiveMil libraries which is again only available in C++. Don't look like I have a choice do I? Unless someone can teach me how to actually wrapped things up and code in C#.

Any ideas anyone?

You could use C++/CLR, that is basically the .NET variety of C++. You write most of you application as a .NET managed application in C++ but you would be able to call out to the non-managed code in the libraries you need to use.

I have just started using it and I have to say I quite like it.
