Processing OpenCV vs Open CV

Solution:

  1. Start Processing 64 bit mode (Mac: in Preferences).
  2. Sketch/Import Library/Add Library (All the libraries are there: Thank you Processing Team !!!)
  3. Install what you want (I took Opencv for processing).
  4. Works.
  5. Enjoy :)

Original Question:

I have OpenCV installed on my system. Finally after a lot of fails and a complete new system install.

Now I saw that there is this Processing OpenCV library:

http://ubaa.net/shared/processing/opencv/

Which is awesome and it comes with a Mac installer (10.6). Now I am a little concerned if I install this , that the installed and working OpenCV will get some problems.

Last time I installed it multiple times and wrong. Brew complained about different dylibs (which I had multiple times on my system). And it did not work.

So before I break the now working OpenCV, I would like to be sure that this opencv is just for processing and will not break things otherwise.

Any comment would be great.

Thank you.

Update:

Thanks to both of the answers.

On the official processing page there are two opencv libraries. The one mentioned above and this one: https://github.com/atduskgreg/opencv-processing. I already installed a version of opencv via brew (in usr/local/Cellar). I don't want to install the official java version (which I don't need and broke things before). I would like to have a working opencv installation in processing. So how can I install the second library (https://github.com/atduskgreg/opencv-processing) in Processing. I tried putting it in the libraries folder of processing and it gave me this error

"No library found for gab.opencv Libraries must be installed in a folder named 'libraries' inside the 'sketchbook' folder."
