opengl access violation error

stav (188)
so i wrote this program that just creates a red window using SDL and then initializes GLEW..

#include <GL\glew.h>
#include "window.h"

int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
	window Window("",100,100,500,400);


	while (Window.Update() != SDL_QUIT)
	{
		
	}


	return 0;
}

#include "window.h"



window::window(char* title, int x, int y, int width, int height) :
_title(title),
_x(x),
_y(y),
_w(width),
_h(height)
{
	SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_EVERYTHING);
	_pWindow = SDL_CreateWindow(_title, _x, _y, _w, _h, SDL_WINDOW_OPENGL);
	

	SDL_GL_CreateContext(_pWindow);
	if (glewInit() == GLEW_OK)
		std::cout << "glew ok" << std::endl;


	glClearColor(0.6f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f);
	SDL_GL_SetAttribute(SDL_GL_DOUBLEBUFFER, 1);


}


int window::Update()
{
	SDL_PollEvent(&_event);
	SDL_GL_SwapWindow(_pWindow);
	
	glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);

	return _event.type;
}


window::~window()
{
	
	SDL_Quit();
}



when i run it, it says "glew ok" in the console and i get a red window as expected...

my problem is that when i then try and call the "glCreateBuffer" function, in main.cpp AFTER creating the window but before the while loop, i get this wired error:

Exception thrown at 0x00000000 in opengl_project.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation executing location 0x00000000.

If there is a handler for this exception, the program may be safely continued.


can someone help me?

Is the OpenGL context still current after glewInit?
