I'm using the new OpenCV Java bindings to read an image and do some processing on the image. I'm trying to convert C code to Java using the Java bindings but can't seem to find the relevant methods:

C code:

cv::Mat img = cv::imread(argv[1]);
cv::Mat gray;
cv::cvtColor(img, gray, CV_BGR2GRAY);
int erosion_size = 5;
cv::Mat element = cv::getStructuringElement(cv::MORPH_CROSS,
                                       cv::Size(2 * erosion_size + 1, 2 * erosion_size + 1),
                                       cv::Point(erosion_size, erosion_size) );
cv::erode(gray, gray, element);
I can't find:
imread
cvtcolor
getStructuringElement
erode
I looked around the api here: http://docs.opencv.org/java/
Unfortunately the sample java code provided doesn't even show how to read an image!
CV_LOAD_IMAGE_ANYDEPTH: returns 16-bit/32-bit image when the input has the corresponding depth, otherwise convert it to 8-bit.
CV_LOAD_IMAGE_COLOR: always convert image to a color one.
CV_LOAD_IMAGE_GRAYSCALE: always convert image to a grayscale one.
Example:
// OpenCV 2.x   
Mat img = Highgui.imread("path/to/img", Highgui.CV_LOAD_IMAGE_GRAYSCALE);
// OpenCV 3.x
Mat img = Imgcodecs.imread("path/to/img", Imgcodecs.CV_LOAD_IMAGE_GRAYSCALE);
If you have correctly installed Opencv with support for Java desktop and included opencv-2.4.4.jar , your should import:
import org.opencv.imgproc.Imgproc;
import org.opencv.core.Point;
import org.opencv.core.Size;
import org.opencv.highgui.Highgui;
And your code will look like this:
Mat img = Highgui.imread(argv[1], Highgui.CV_LOAD_IMAGE_GRAYSCALE);
int erosion_size = 5;
Mat element  = Imgproc.getStructuringElement(
    Imgproc.MORPH_CROSS, new Size(2 * erosion_size + 1, 2 * erosion_size + 1), 
    new Point(erosion_size, erosion_size)
Imgproc.erode(img, img, element);
                I know this is an old post, but i configured open-cv and all, i try running your code andi get: "Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: org.opencv.highgui.Highgui.imread_0(Ljava/lang/String;I)J 	at org.opencv.highgui.Highgui.imread_0(Native Method) 	at org.opencv.highgui.Highgui.imread(Highgui.java:306) 	at pack.ColoredObjectTrack.main(ColoredObjectTrack.java:41)"

                You have not correctly referenced native library. Follow the tutorial with more attention.
