This is a simple program to create an empty image and save it with name con.jpg.

import cv2
import numpy

img = numpy.zeros([500,500],numpy.uint8)
cv2.imwrite("con.jpg",img)

But the image is not getting saved with this name con.jpg whereas if I write the name anything else like a , con1, cont, etc its working fine. Any answer for this weird behavior of imwrite.

  • What platform? Which version of OpenCV (not that it would make much difference given the cause)? – Dan Mašek May 16 '17 at 18:42
