Hi I have written a ROS node that implements a camera calibration
given intrinsic parameters and a chessboard pattern.

I want to use FindExtrinsicCameraParams2, and it would be nice to
have a templated cv:: function for it, but I cannot find one
anywhere in my environment. Is the ROS version of OpenCV missing
any C++ functionality versus OpenCV2.1?

So, I resorted to trying to convert the cv::Mat objects I have to
CvMat objects using the simple operator. I assume, since there is
no data copying, that the matrix header is the only change made. I
also assume that I can use the cvFindExtrinsicCameraParams2
function with my newly-created CvMat objects.

I run into an error, however, since I cannot directly copy-paste
my code so here's a quick rundown.

// I have a populated STL vector of Mats
vector<Mat> distortion_coeffs;
//I create cv::Mats
Mat distortion(rows,cols,CV_64FC3);
//Then, populate all of them except tvec,rvec
distortion_coeffs[0].copyTo(distortion);
//Then copy to the old CvMat struct
CvMat distortion_old = distortion;

// Then call cvFindExtrinsicCameraParams2

OpenCV Error: Incorrect size of input array (Either the number of
channels or columns or rows must be =1) in
cvConvertPointsHomogeneous, file
/opt/ros/boxturtle/stacks/vision_opencv/opencv2/build/opencv-svn/src/cv/cvfundam.cpp

I am running boxturtle on Ubuntu Karmic 2.6.31-14. Thanks for any
help.
