Qt run time error in using compute function of HOG descriptor

[Sai Kamat]

I am using Qt-Creator 5.2.0 to create a GUI to display the Image and a binary classifier to detect the object is present or absent using Dalal & triggs HOG extraction algorithm.

I am facing the mentioned Run time error & need help to solve this issue.

IplImage *oMatDeltaImage = cvLoadImage("E:\\Wihart\\Car_Images\\(785).jpg",CV_LOAD_IMAGE_UNCHANGED);

How do you know that "oMatDeltaImage" is a valid pointer? I presume that if cvLoadImage() fails, it will return a NULL pointer. You don't check the return value, you simply use it in the next line and in SVM_classifier() and assume it is OK.

The debugger would probably have found your error in less time than it took to make your post.

I tried to run this program using visual studio 10 with a qt addin-1.19 in it. The code runs fine.
