<question text="How does dlib interface with other libraries/tools?">
There shouldn't ever be anything in dlib that prevents you from using or
interacting with other libraries. However, there are some additional tools
in dlib to make some interactions easier.
<ul>
<li><b>BLAS and LAPACK libraries</b> are used by the <a href="linear_algebra.html#matrix">matrix</a>
automatically if you <tt>#define</tt> DLIB_USE_BLAS and/or DLIB_USE_LAPACK and link against
the appropriate library files. Note that the CMakeLists.txt file that comes with dlib will
do this for you automatically in many instances.</li><br/>
<li><b>Armadillo and Eigen libraries</b> have matrix objects which can be converted into
dlib matrix objects by calling dlib::mat() on them.</li><br/>
<li><b>OpenCV</b> image objects can be converted into a form usable by dlib routines
by using <a href="imaging.html#cv_image">cv_image</a>. You can also convert from a
dlib matrix or image to an OpenCV Mat using dlib::<a href="imaging.html#toMat">toMat</a>().</li><br/>
<li><b>Google Protocol Buffers</b> can be serialized by the dlib
<a href="other.html#serialize">serialization</a> routines.
This means that, for example, you can pass protocol buffer objects through a
<a href="network.html#bridge">bridge</a>.
</li>
</ul>
