It's recommended to build via vcpkg so that the dependency version could be consistent with the tests. Boost might introduce breaking changes so that it's hard to maintain code compatibility with all versions. Currently the tested version is 1.83: https://github.com/apache/pulsar-client-cpp/blob/fca38274ea2587f0980c40af83d8886ea73538e9/vcpkg.json#L16
I tried upgrading the dependency to 1.86 before but the PR is drafted due to my lack of time recently: https://github.com/apache/pulsar-client-cpp/blob/fca38274ea2587f0980c40af83d8886ea73538e9/vcpkg.json#L16

Ports/packages can't do this. They always use other packages as dependencies.

Sorry I don't understand it. Did you mean your project depends on Boost 1.87 so that the version is pinned?
BTW, it's acceptable to support latest Boost version. I tried upgrading Boost to 1.86 before (https://github.com/apache/pulsar-client-cpp/pull/459) but it's not in progress now due to lack of time.

The version is pinned because only one boost version can be installed in the system at any given time.
Yes, but I'm busy recently. It should not be a hard job, let me try today.
I just tried 1.87. There are many API changes not only just the io_service, so it still needs some time to adapt the latest Boost.Asio API.
As a workaround, you can add Asio (not Boost.Asio) directly into your project and build with -DUSE_ASIO=ON option.
I drafted a PR (https://github.com/apache/pulsar-client-cpp/pull/477) but might not have time addressing failed tests (if possible) next week.
@BewareMyPower I noticed it's been a while since the last update - just checking if you're still working on this?
