Unable to compile

[larch13]

I am using visual studio 2019 and whenever I try to compile I get this error coming from some of the SOIL2 files

'fopen': This function or variable may be unsafe. Consider using fopen_s instead. To disable deprecation, use _CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS. See online help for details.

how can I fix this I tried putting #define _CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE at the beginning of the offending files but it completely messed everything up. what can I do to fix this?

This is an issue just with your own project configuration. The project generated with premake5 will work just fine. You just needed to add _CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE in your preprocessors:
