In SCEW 1.0.0, the API was stabilized and cleaned up for consistency. 
Most of the functions you mentioned have never existed, all of SCEW 
functions have a prefix corresponding to the desired type, for example:

scew_XXXX_function where XXXX can be: parser, tree, element, attribute...

From "scew_load_file" I guess you meant "scew_parser_load_file". As an 
example, below is the change you will have to make to load a file:

*********
Load file (SCEW < 1.0.0):

scew_parser *parser = scew_parser_create ();
scew_parser_load_file (parser, "file.xml");
scew_tree *tree = scew_parser_tree (parser);

*********
Load file (SCEW >= 1.0.0):

scew_parser *parser = scew_parser_create ();
scew_reader *reader = scew_reader_file_create ("file.xml");
scew_tree *tree = scew_parser_load (parser, reader);

*********

You can also check at the samples found in the "examples" directory.

If you have any doubt during the update, don't hesitate to post a 
message to the list. But it should be very straight forward checking at 
the documentation:
