Question: Have you got any future plans to support secure CRT functions, possibly in wdltypes.h? Also something unrelated, your answers' paragraphs in top level text browsers need some attention. Have a nice weekend

    Part of me says that is not necessary because it's not in the C++ standard, the other part says that at some point want to remove _CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS, _CRT_NONSTDC_NO_DEPRECATE from our build. And that's how I ended up with the question; to hear your point of view on the matter. Okay?

    since it's non-portable, you'd have to either have separate code paths for non-win32, or have wrapper functions. seems like a fuss to me for no real benefit; the old APIs are fine to use if used carefully.

    Thanks for your feedback. Recently noticed that the legacy ANSI C compiler of VS produces unnecessary warnings for valid code. Looks like the move to a better conforming compiler to be an option.
