MSVC 2013 implements the behavior mandated by C++11 that removes the
ability to downconvert a string literal to a modifiable char*, but it's
not enabled by default. This option turns it on.
It's only enabled for release builds because the compiler page has a note
saying the Standard Library has bugs that prevent it from working in
debug mode. See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn449508.aspx
Visual Studio "14" has this fixed.
[ChangeLog][Compiler Specific Changes] Release builds with Microsoft
Visual Studio 2013 now enable the standard-conforming C and C++ strict
string behavior. This option will be enabled in all builds with future
Visual Studio versions. Non-conforming code should be fixed for maximum
portability and correctness. See
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn449508.aspx for more
information.
