I've been taking MinGW-w64 TDM-GCC 4.5 for a spin on my company's code and I
ran into a problem compiling a third party dependency: CppUnit 1.12. Looks
like MinGW defines __STDC_SECURE_LIB__ which causes CppUnit to use sprintf_s
instead of sprintf (and similar functions). However, prototypes for these
functions aren't visible unless I explicitly define MINGW_HAS_SECURE_API. Once
that's done, CppUnit compiles but doesn't link due to unresolved symbols for
sprintf_s and friends. After having some fun with nm and grep I gave up
because I couldn't figure out which library contained these guys.
Am I missing something or should I just modify CppUnit to only use these
functions for MSVC? Personally I don't ever use them but I try to avoid
changes to third party code if possible.
