We have to manually change the boost build files to specify that we want everything built with -D_SCL_SECURE=0. Without this we hit runtime errors when iterators form part of the interface to a lib (the specific issue was with signals, but it applies in the general case too). I'd like to see the boost build system provide the option of specifying an _SCL_SECURE=0 define at the command line, I don't think this is possible at the moment. Jim

I have seen some attempts from library authors, e.g. boost/thread/win32/conditiona_variable.hpp to get rid of the annoying MSVC warnings.
However this seems not to work (at least on my machine).
It works here, that's why I put it in.
There seems to be some unintended interdependence with _SCL_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE. I was not able to find out what exactly is causing the warnings not go away.
Hoever, compiling with _CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE and _SCL_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE
quiets the build.
Yes, that works too, but it's a build option.
Couldn't this issue be handled by the boost config headers?
That would seem better than handling it on a case-by-case basis, but it might change things for user code too (i.e. any code included *after* the boost headers).
Is this something wrong with my setup only, or do others experience the same problem?
There must be something different with our setups.
