strcpy() error in Visual studio 2012

Question

so I have this code:

#include \"stdafx.h\"
#include 
#include 
#include 
using namespace std;

...<

Answer 1

There's an explanation and solution for this on MSDN:

The function strcpy is considered unsafe due to the fact that there is no bounds checking and can lead to buffer overflow.

Consequently, as it suggests in the error description, you can use strcpy_s instead of strcpy:

strcpy_s( char *strDestination, size_t numberOfElements,
const char *strSource );

and:

To disable deprecation, use _CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS. See online help for details.
