I am trying to use the OpenCV library in order to load an image in a VB window. I am using Visual Studio 2012, I have no idea how to add OpenCV references into my VB.NET project!

How can I fix this problem?

    OpenCV is for unmanaged languages such as C or C++/Win32. Use the managed EmguCV wrapper instead. Commented Jul 22, 2016 at 20:57
  • So, if I understand you well, it is impossible to integrate OpenCV directly in .NET environnement. Should I absolutly use the EmguCV wrapper ? Commented Jul 22, 2016 at 21:23
  • Yes it is impossible since C# and VB.NET (etc.) don't understand the native machine code. But what's wrong with using a wrapper? A wrapper is usually designed very similar to the base library, and in the end it calls the methods in the base library anyway. Commented Jul 22, 2016 at 21:28
  • If you know your way around C++ and/or C++/CLI you can create your own wrapper for the OpenCV methods, structures and classes that you need. Commented Jul 22, 2016 at 21:34
  • Great ! thanks a lot, you saved me. Commented Jul 23, 2016 at 16:27

First this: https://www.nuget.org/packages/OpenCV.Net/ and then replace your 'using ??' with: Imports OpenCV.Net
