Linker Error prevents me from initializing TA-LIB in C++

Question

I'm having a problem with TA-LIB in my C++ project.

I just downloaded TA-lib (ta-lib-0.4.0-msvc.zip) and copy-and-pasted c folder to my project folder.

Because of a linker error, I can't go any further.

What I did:

I just downloaded TA-lib (ta-lib-0.4.0-msvc.zip) and copy-and-pasted c folder to my project folder.
include "c\include\ta_libc.h"

Is there anything wrong with my steps? Or any steps I missed?

@AlenL Thank you for your help.

I included every proj files in IDE.

But the result is the same.

Look into the ta-lib\c\ide\vs2005\lib_proj folder and it's subfolders. You need to include the .vcproj files from the subfolders into your solution.

Ok, they are there, and I suppose they can be built. Now you should also add a proper library (or libraries) as dependencies (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/ide/how-to-create-and-remove-project-dependencies?view=vs-2017), so they are built before your project. Additionally, you will have to make sure they are also linked with your project. Depending on version of VS and project/solution settings, that might or might not happen automatically as soon as you add them as dependencies. – AlenL Oct 06 '18 at 17:19
