Image Editor - Udacity C++ Nanodegree capstone project

This is my submission for capstone assignment in the Udacity C++ Nanodegree Program: Capstone. The Image Editor App can be used to edit ones images. It can read images from our directory, perform various actios like rotate, affine, zoom in/out, etc. The image can be saved after the editing.

Dependencies for Running Locally

1. QT == 5.5.1 (tested on this version only) Install QT: click here for installation instructions
2. QMake == 3.0 (tested on this version only) Install QMake: click here for installation instructions
3. OpenCV Install OpenCV: click here for installation instructions
4. C++11

Basic Build Instructions

1. cd workspace/ImageEditor/ImageEditorApp
2. rm -rf build
3. mkdir build && cd build
4. qmake .. && make
5. mv ImageEditor ../
6. cd ..
7. chmod a+x ImageEditor

Running the software

Output of the program.

mainwindow.cpp - handling gui main.cpp - encapsultes object and starting point of project

Expected output- GUI in which image can be uploaded and can be interacted with using toolbar options statusbar shows information about file main toolbar- all plugins inside edit second toolbar- plugins on display keyboard shortcuts mentioned edit option in toolbar

Some concepts used in the project

The project demonstrates an understanding of C++ functions and control structures. The project code is clearly organized into functions. Examples- maiwindow.cpp, mainwindow.h, main.cpp

The project uses Object Oriented Programming techniques. Examples- maiwindow.cpp, mainwindow.h, main.cpp

Classes use appropriate access specifiers for class members. Examples- mainwindow.h, main.cpp

Class constructors utilize member initialization lists. Examples- mainwindow.cpp, line 24, 30

Classes follow an appropriate inheritance hierarchy. Example- mainwindow.h, line 16

The project uses scope / Resource Acquisition Is Initialization (RAII) where appropriate.

The project makes use of references in function declarations. Example- mainwindow.cpp, line 146

Classes encapsulate behavior Examples- maiwindow.cpp

Overloaded functions allow the same function to operate on different parameters. Example- mainwindow.h, line 26, 27
