Description
Hi,
This is a question rather than an issue. I could not find a better place to ask this question. I apologies if this is not the way to ask question.
I am evaluating sender/receiver with our code base. The best implementation I could find is this reference implementation (libunifex is not an option due to its "experimental" natural). I have several questions.
-
It doesn't seem to support MSVC. I tried to build the code with latest MSVC and immediately hit 6-7 issues because of different compiler bugs and name clashes with msvc stl internals. Is supporting MSVC on the plan? If so, I am happy to submit PRs that work arounds msvc bugs.
-
Is it going to support C++20 for the long term (until paper accepted and all stl implemented them)? For example, if we are going to use it but this implementation switched to use some C++23 and C++26 features, then it will break our code. I guess this is likely to happen as p2547r0 is meant to replace the
tag_invoke
Thanks
Hui

Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or implementation entry points. Start by reviewing the project's documented compiler and C++ standard requirements, then examine the reported MSVC build failures; done would require a maintainer decision and a defined scope for compatibility support.
