Since a lot of our files include asio.hpp, we see this warning over and over again.  And unfortunately I know of no way to suppress this issue, so I'm hoping you can adjust the implementation to use strlcpy.  Some of the other layers in Boost seem to have done this already, so maybe you don't have to re-invent the wheel.",Bugs,new,To Be Determined,asio,Boost 1.65.0,Problem,,,
