Description
When compiling on MacOS, the C++ site update code generates pages of warnings:
siteupdate.cpp:527:4: warning: 'sprintf' is deprecated: This function is provided for compatibility reasons only. Due to security concerns inherent in the design of sprintf(3), it is highly recommended that you use snprintf(3) instead. [-Wdeprecated-declarations]
sprintf(fstr, ": %.2f mi", cr->mileage);
^
/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk/usr/include/stdio.h:188:1: note: 'sprintf' has been explicitly marked deprecated here
__deprecated_msg("This function is provided for compatibility reasons only. Due to security concerns inherent in the design of sprintf(3), it is highly recommended that you use snprintf(3) instead.")
I'm ok leaving it or replacing our sprintf calls with snprintf calls. A little of what I saw when searching around on this is that there are also some more C++-specific ways to achieve the same result.
