I am trying to use the parser from this site:
http://www.partow.net/programming/exprtk/
on VS 2015. Unfortunately, I get the following error while compiling exprtk_simple_example_01 (one of the example files included in the download with the parser):
Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State
Error C4996 'std::_Copy_impl': Function call with parameters that may be
unsafe - this call relies on the caller to check that the passed values are
correct. To disable this warning, use -D_SCL_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS. See
documentation on how to use Visual C++ 'Checked Iterators' TEST
c:\program files (x86)\microsoft visual studio 14.0\vc\include\xutility 2229
Why is that? Is this parser not compatible with VS 2015?
THE SOLUTION IS:
In solution explorer, right click the project, select "properties". The project property page will open. Expand the ">C/C++" entry in the tree on the left and select "Preprocessor" under that. The top entry in the right pane should be "Preprocessor Definitions". In that edit box, add _SCL_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS, separating it from the other entries with a
;Then set the linker flag /bigobj!
