Programming in C / C++

uEye Camera Manual Version 3.80

Programming in C / C++

For programming with the uEye API, we suggest that you use the C / C++ programming language. This programming language offers efficient access to all functions of the uEye API. Enabling access to image memory contents through pointers, C / C++ is especially suitable for image processing applications.

Most of the uEye sample programs were created in Microsoft Visual Studio using the C++ programming language.

Required Files

In order to access the uEye API, make sure to include the following files in your project:

Header file: uEye.h
Lib file: uEye_api.lib
Function library (DLL): uEye_Api.dll

 

In order to access the uEye AVI functions, make sure to include the following files in your project:

Header file: uEye_tools.h
Lib file: uEye_tools.lib
Function library (DLL): uEye_tools.dll

 

In order to access the uEye DirectShow functions, make sure to include the following files in your project:

Header file: uEyeCaptureInterface.h
DirectShow interface: uEyecapture.ax

 

Hinweis

We suggest that you keep the function libraries (DLL, AX and OCX files) in the default directory. Under Windows, these files reside in C:\Windows\System32\ after the installation.

Copying these files to other locations may result in version conflicts.
