Why is MBCS needed?

Some languages, for example, Japanese and Chinese, have large character sets.
To support programming for these markets,
the MFC enables two different approaches to handling large character sets:

• Unicode, wchar_t based wide-characters, and strings encoded as UTF-16.
• Multibyte Character Sets (MBCS), char based single or double-byte characters and strings encoded in a locale-specific character set.

Triggering reason

Project Properties -> General

Character Set: Use Multi-Byte Character Set

Referenced from "Error preprocessor directives when building".

Solution

Project Properties -> C\C++ > Preprocessor -> Preprocessor Definition

add:

NO_WARN_MBCS_MFC_DEPRECATION
