Compatibility with another library requirement...

[cyboy22]

Hi - I am building an application which uses Redis as the cache and persists data to postgreSQL. The postgreSQL library (ozo) requires a macro definition:

BOOST_ASIO_USE_TS_EXECUTOR_AS_DEFAULT

which causes an exhaustive stream of errors that appear to be connected to your redis library. Could you suggest what might be the problem?- please find the output attached.

I can reproduce and will investigate soon. As a workaround, instead of using boost::redis::connection you can use an executor other that the default, for example

using executor_type = net::io_context::executor_type;
using connection = boost::redis::basic_connection<executor_type>;

This might have cascading effect, for example, you might have to redefine awaitable type as net::awaitable<void, executor_type> instead of net::awaitable<void>.

By the way, boost has a MySql connector: https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_82_0/libs/mysql/doc/html/index.html which might be useful if you would like to avoid OZO.

Really appreciate the time you have taken to look at the problem with try/investigate your suggestions.
