Hi, recently tried to compile a code on optical flow. Got this error!

proesmans - 2 error(s), 0 warning(s)

I don't understand why a values.h isn't present. Where should i go to make it exist?

Another question, does having multiple source files cause problems..i'm using a main.cpp and a proesmans.cpp. Up till now i've only had one source file!

C++

c:\documents and settings\administrator\desktop\project software\of-eval-1.0\of-eval\of_implementations\proesmans\proesmans.h(7) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'values.h': No such file or directory
main.c

simply means that you have added an #include "values.h" in your proesmans.h file, but the compiler cannot find the header. If you really do not understand this then I think you may need to go back to your C++ documentation.

Second question: No, there is no problem having multiple sources in a project, most applications have that.
