errors building from source with openCV

i'm trying to build this:

http://www.nist.gov/itl/iad/ig/vasir.cfm

from source. it require me to use openCV 1.0 to build it. the problems is that i keep getting linker errors similar to the following

1>C:\Users\Josh\Downloads\src_vasir_beta1.0\/debug/YooIRIS.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 34 unresolved externals

i've literally dug through the directory and added every subdir with a source header or lib file in it to my source/header/lib include in VS 2008 and i still get these errors. googling has been of very little help so far

i have experience programming in C++ and after all this i know my way around VS, but i've no experience building the code of others and no experience with openVC

any ideas where i can start?

(i only posted a part of the error messages so the my post is not too long, but they are all of the "unresolved external" variety)

update:

i've eliminated all of the unresolved external errors except for CVVideoSource. any idea what lib this is a part of?

propohetjohn (22)

and i got it. carry on.

edit: if anyone is curious, the documentation was wrong. libraries from openCV 1.0 and openCV 2.3 were required to be able to link successfully
