Matt has answered the main question, but as an aside: 
-D"_CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE" suppresses warning messages from Microsoft's 
Visual C compiler for using various standard C library functions, rather than 
using the optional "secure" ones (a misnomer, as they are at best somewhat 
easier to use safely) added with C99 (in Appendix K of the C standard, I think; 
I'm traveling and don't have my copy handy). It has nothing to do with OpenSSL 
APIs, deprecated or otherwise; it just reduces noise from the Microsoft 
compiler.
