i want to migrate an old dirty legacy app handling TCP/IP to Boost.Asio because all my other TCP/IP stuff is using Asio and the legacy app getting reworked BUT it still needs to run on old dirty Windows XP - for around 1-2 years (then i can upgrade to more recent compiler/Boost etc.) i know that i had used Boost (i think 1.69) on XP a long time ago and trying to find out what Boost version is the last XP supporting and how i can build boost from source with VS2022 + v141_xp toolkit (if that is even possible - i have no idea) im using boost on daily basis and build for Linux,Windows for over a decade so its just the Windows XP thing that makes mit nervous tried building Boost 1.69 seems to be possible with VS2022 x86 console with v141_xp toolkit installed (not tested with XP so far) boostrap.bat vc141 and i think that is minimal needed for Asio b2 release toolset=msvc-14.1 define=BOOST_USE_WINAPI_VERSION=0x0501 --with-system --with-thread --with-date_time --with-regex --with-serialization stage toolset can be set to anything currently (even msvc-14.1_xp or msv-14.1_blabla) so im not sure what i really need to force using the v141_xp toolkit so what is the latest Boost version that supports XP enough for Asio use and how to build that one properbly? thanks for any help
