Answer 1

See http://docs.opencv.org/doc/tutorials/introduction/windows_visual_studio_Opencv/windows_visual_studio_Opencv.html#windows-visual-studio-how-to

Add these to your stdafx.h

#include         // cv::Mat etc, always need this
#include   // all the image processing functions
#include   // Display and file I/O

Assuming you have set OPENCV_DIR to the place you put opencv eg. OPENCV_DIR=c:\opencv2.4\opencv

Then set the VC++ directories in project settings to Include add $(OPENCV_DIR)\include and to Library add $(OPENCV_DIR)\lib

Then in the "linker Input" add opencv_core240.lib (opencv_core240D.lib for debug) opencv_imgproc240.lib and opencv_highgui240.lib etc
