Re: [Boost-users] [format] When compiling with vc8 I get a warning

To ignore the "safe library" warnings all you should need are _CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE (for C run-time library) and _SCL_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE (for C++ STL library). The other define, _CRT_NONSTDC_NO_DEPRECATE, is for something else entirely. This define gives a warning if you use any common, but non-standard function names. For example, itoa instead of _itoa. I don't know for sure but I would be surprised if boost used of any of these non-standard names as they would not be guaranteed to exist on all compilers. -- Bill --

Hello, when compiling one of my projects which uses Boost.Format I get the compiler warning shown below. I have defined both _CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE & _CRT_NONSTDC_NO_DEPRECATE

_SCL_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE? :-)

Yes that worked perfectly, thank you very much indeed :-) .

You are welcome :-) If you prefer, you can also disable the warning (from the command line, in the IDE, or programmatically with #pragma warning) or you can increase its level (by default it is a level 1 warning, but you can move it to level 4, for instance). Or you could prepare wrapping headers, as hinted at in the thread "[general] MSVC71 Warnings Off?"; that's in line with the general suggestions of Alexandrescu/Sutter "C++ Coding Standards".
