GLSL Setup

I get these errors when i try to put together a GLSL example program from a website, just so i can get a feel for shaders. I also get these exact same errors when i try to implement this shader in my own program.

I was told to add the shader.cpp & shader.h to my project instead of just having it in the folder, and now i get these new errors:

Did i solve the previous problem, or am i digging myself deeper?

Looks like you forgot to put glew32 in your linker.

If you’re using visual studio, you need to add it under additional dependencies.

Thank you!

I got same errors!
How did you do to fix it?
