c++获取图像的长宽 opencv,OpenCV Mat对象 - 获取数据长度

In OpenCV, I'm able to capture frames using VideoCapture in C++, however, when I try to get the data from a frame and calculate length, it just returns me 0.

Below is my sample code:

VideoCapture cap(0);

for(;;) {

Mat frame;

cap >> frame;

int length = strlen((char*) frame.data); // returns 0

}

As I mentioned above that if I save the frame in a PNG file, I can actually see the image so I'm not able to understand why the data length is coming out to be zero.

Any clue?

The strlen method only works on strings, which are arrays of chars terminated by a special character:

You have cast a Mat type as a char*, so it is not a string.

Building on the solution here, try:

Mat mat;

int rows = mat.rows;

int cols = mat.cols;

int num_el = rows*cols;

int len = num_el*mat.elemSize1();

to get the size of one channel in bytes. Also, use elemSize() if you want all the channels (i.e. you'll get 3 times the value of elemSize1() if the Mat is a 3 channel image).
