accessing OpenCV from the KISS IDE

I am trying to access OpenCV methods from the KISS IDE (v. 4.0.5), running on the Link (firmware 1.9.5). Here is my test program:

// Created on Thu June 20 2013
#include <iostream>
#include <kovan/camera.hpp>
#include <opencv2/opencv.hpp>
 
using namespace std;
using namespace cv;
 
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
	// Mat image;
 
	Camera::Device camera;
	camera.open();
 
	VideoCapture *cap = camera.videoCapture();
 
	cout << cap->grab() << endl;
 
	camera.close();
}

in order to do a cap->retrieve(image), I get a compile-time (linker) error indicating that there is an undefined reference to cv::fastFree(void*). Here is the full error message:

/usr/lib/gcc/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/4.5.4./../../../../arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/bin/ld: nogood4.cpp.o: underfined reference to symbol 'cv::fastFree(void*);

/usr/lib/gcc/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/4.5.4./../../../../arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/bin/ld: note: 'cv::fastFree(void*)' is defined in DSO /usr/lib/libopencv_core.so.2.4 so try adding it to the linker command line

/usr/lib/libopencv_core.so.2.4: could not read symbols: Invalid operation

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Am I doing something wrong? Is there some easy way to access the OpenCV library on the Link?

Thanks in advance!
