I think defining _CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE is something the end-user has to do,
since by the time my headers are included the standard iostreams headers may
already have been included.

Do you know any more details about the deprecation of these member functions? I
was just guessing that the deprecation was for security reasons; can you confirm
this? I'd also like to know what functions are supposed to replace them.

Thanks for your help!
