subscriptions to multiple channels issue about cpp-bredis

[basiliscos]

I think you misuse redis API: once you entered into the subscription

When a Redis client subscribes to a Pub/Sub channel, the protocol changes semantics and becomes a push protocol, that is, the client no longer requires sending commands, because the server will automatically send to the client new messages (for the channels the client is subscribed to) as soon as they are received.

See, https://redis.io/topics/protocol

In other words there is a problem to know, is it a new message or subscription confirmation to channel-2.

Easy workaround : just don't validate (usually it is fine), or do manual inspection of each new redis message, until u get all confirmation, as it might be:

confirm-channel1, msg-channel-1, msg-channel-1, ..., msg-channel-1, confirm-channel-2

Thanks @basiliscos , I did the manual validation. Just wanted to make sure I didn't miss a hidden feature.
