If you downloaded the tarball or zip archive from the GLEW website, you just need to:
$ make
$ sudo make install
$ make clean
use the project file in build/vc12/
If you wish to build GLEW from scratch (update the extension data from the net or add your own extension information), you need a Unix environment (including wget, perl, and GNU make). The extension data is regenerated from the top level source directory with:
make extensions
An alternative to generating the GLEW sources from scratch is to download a pre-generated (unsupported) snapshot:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/glew/files/glew/snapshots/
Travis-built snapshots are also available:
