RE: asyn 4-35 does not compile on Windows 10 (VS 2019)

["Gofron, Kazimierz via Tech-talk" <tech-talk@aps.anl.gov>]

Asyn 4.35 does not compile on Visual Studio 2010. {I had too many windows opened}
But, it does compile on the Visual Studio 2019 CE, v16.0.4

It compiles fine on VS2015 (and VS2017 I believe)

Hi,

I am having problems compiling asyn 4-35 (and current version of master) on Windows 10 with Visual Studio 2019 Community Edition. Problem is specific to windows since asyn-4-35 compiles on debian 7/8/9 and ubuntu 18.
