I just pulled latest drogon and cmake refuses to build my code.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

However, it fails with following messages:

Well, my report can be ignored. The problem was due to the installation of VS2022 on a fresh Windows installing obsolete msvc libraries in C:\Windows\System32, although the latest redists are present in add/remove software. Reinstalling the redists fixes the problem.

This is a broken framework with zero support. I raised a regression issue in its base trantor package. The changes broke my code and nobody cared to figure out the issue. I will suggest that you use actix which has much better community.
