Answer 1

I think the accepted answer explained it very well. Basically, as the documentation also indicates, the compiler can not guarantee that the string variable (in this case imp) is a string literal. You may disable this warning if you are not concerened with safety by puting

#ifdef _WIN32
#pragma warning (disable : 4774)
#endif

in the header of your code or in the CMake:

if (CMAKE_C_COMPILER_ID STREQUAL "MSVC")
  set(CMAKE_C_FLAGS "/wd4774") 
endif()
