Hi All,
In my post on the "vc8.0 toolset (bjam)" thread, I commented that VC8 also warns when using the str[n]xxx APIs, because MS declares them deprecated. There are several issues here:
Are you refering to the versions with the 'n' as the safe versions? If so,
these Okay, I see. The 'safe versions' are the ones with the trailing '_s', right? (http://tinyurl.com/6pkva) Still, I don't see any reason to worry.
From your previous message:
Would it be possible to put this in the Boost <cstring> header? I.e. using the safe versions for VC8 and using the C9x API for the other compilers/libraries.
Now that I know what you're talking about, could you elaborate on this? Jonathan
