readNetFromDarkNet Throwing Exception

C++

Hi Alex,

Here is where I placed the cfg and weight files:

And here is the C++ VS code I am running:

int main()
{
    cv::VideoCapture webcam(0);
    cv::Mat frame;
    webcam.read(frame);

    vector<string> classNames;
    ifstream cocoNamesFile;
    cocoNamesFile.open("C:/darknet/cfg/coco.names");
    string line;

    try
    {
        if (cocoNamesFile.fail()) throw 1;
        while (getline(cocoNamesFile, line)) classNames.push_back(line);
        for (int i = 0; i < classNames.size(); i++) cout << classNames[i] << endl;
        cout << "Number of different classes: " << classNames.size() << endl;
        cocoNamesFile.close();

        if (frame.empty()) throw 2;

        string modelConfiguration = "C:/Users/Blake/source/repos/YOLO/yolov3-608.cfg";
        string modelWeights = "C:/Users/Blake/source/repos/YOLO/yolov3-608.weights";

        ifstream model;
        model.open(modelConfiguration);
        if (model.fail()) throw 3;
        model.close();
        model.open(modelWeights);
        if (model.fail()) throw 4;
        model.close();

        cv::dnn::Net net = cv::dnn::readNetFromDarknet("C:/Users/Blake/source/repos/YOLO/yolov3-608.cfg", "C:/Users/Blake/source/repos/YOLO/yolov3-608.weights");
        net.setPreferableBackend(cv::dnn::DNN_BACKEND_OPENCV);
        net.setPreferableTarget(cv::dnn::DNN_TARGET_CPU);

        do
        {

            cv::imshow("Webcam Live Feed", frame);
            cv::waitKey(1);
            webcam.read(frame);
        } while (!frame.empty());
    }

    catch (int i)
    {
        if (i == 1) cout << "Cannot Open Coco Names File\n";
        else if (i == 2) cout << "Cannot Read Web Cam\n";
        else if (i == 3) cout << "Cannot Open Model Configuration File\n";
        else if (i == 4) cout << "Cannot Open Model Weights File\n";

        return EXIT_FAILURE;
    }

    return 0;
}

I am still getting an exception thrown at the same spot
