New version that support Boost 1.70 and beyond

[aholzinger]

Hi, what is the blocker in creating a new version that considers the issues with boost::asio since version 1.70?

I'm aware that the develop branch addressed this issue, but the situation is far from being perfect, especially if you use libraries/repos that include websocketpp like i.e. cpprestsdk.

Attached is a patch for master that works with boost >= 1.70, tested under Windows by compiling the cpprestsdk (VS2017 and boost 1.170, VS2019 and bost 1.71 and 1.72).

I know the patch is far from optimal, but it already would help all the cpprestsdk users that can't downgrade to boost 1.69.

Have you instead tried the two commits on the "develop" branch, which were committed/merged there in April 2019?:
c769c92
f810ca2
They are supposed to fix build with boost:::asio >= 1.70.

Yes, that's it. Thank you very much!!!

The fix for this issue has been available on the develop branch for some time and has now been published in release 0.8.2
