No help found for OpenCV functions in MATLAB

[anuppari]

System information (version)

• OpenCV => approx. current masters, opencv: commit 232d6b8, opencv_contrib: commit 1df961c
• Operating System / Platform => Windows 64 Bit
• Compiler => Visual Studio 2015

Detailed description

The documentation in the matlab module notes that the matlab help function can be used to get info about opencv functions, however calling:

help cv.dft

returns

No help found for cv.dft.

The only one that works is help cv.

Steps to reproduce

Run the following in matlab:

help cv.dft

the docstrings for the help were originally generated from rst, moving to doxygen with opencv3.1 removed the input for this.

so, sad as it is, unless someone finds a novel way to generate matlab doc strings from doxygen comments, there will be no builtin help

@berak Hi berak, I'm trying to use those mex functions from the matlab module and I didn't find the documentation for those mex functions, which is really inconvenient. As you know, those mex functions has different inputs than the C++ interface. Could you please tell me where is the matlab doc? From what you said, it seems there is matlab doc. Thanks very much!

@heyjie, unfortunately, you misread it. there are no matlab docs, the input they were generated from does no longer exist.
