Answer 1

To give a quick overview how i got cvBlobs working :

1) download the latest cvBlob

2) Extract it

3) Navigate to cvBlob/cvBlob and open the CMakeLists.txt

4) Add this code :

if(APPLE)
   target_link_libraries(cvblob ${OpenCV_LIBS})
endif()

UNDERNEATH

add_library(cvblob SHARED ${cvBlob_CVBLOB})

5) open your cmake program and select the path to the folder where said cmake file is. And select a path where you want your libs to be

6) Execute it

7) Open terminal, go to the folder

8) Then you get a makefile which you can sudo make install

9) To use the cvBlob in xcode you have to add the 'libcvblob.dylib' to the other linker flags.
