Hi !
I would like to know if it’s possible to force an error during compilation of
code if a specific function is found, let’s say ‘strcpy(…)’.
I believe that I’ve seen something like it one before but with GCC.
In this case I’m using Watcom C++ 10.{whatever_is_the_lates}.
Best regards,
Joachim Holst

Sure:
#define strcpy this is a bad function to use here
I’d have preferred to say:
#define strcpy #error do not use strcpy
but I’m not 100% certain – try it
