Re: [Boost-users] Boost 1.72.0 build fail with Visual Studio 2019 16.4

I turn to VS 2017 and everything is OK. So if you really need use boost.asio, you can try that. On Tue, Dec 24, 2019 at 11:46 AM Leo Carreon via Boost-users < boost-users@lists.boost.org> wrote:

Hi Boost Users,

I am building Boost 1.72.0 in 64-bit mode with the flag /std:c++latest using Visual Studio 2019 16.4.2 and I am encountering the following issues:

Has anyone else encountered the same issues and how to resolve them?

It appears that the macro BOOST_ASIO_CONCEPT is the one causing the issue. This macro seems to have the value “concept bool” which causes the complaint from the compiler.
