@Zardoz89 could you provide details on how it clashes with ASIO? I would lke to fix this issue in spdlog

If I include asio before spdlog, spdlog throws and error about
GetDynamicTimzone being undefined because asio defines the windows version
to a low number for windows xp compatibility, but that number is to low
causing GetDynamicTimzone to be conditionally not compiled. The opposite
happens if I include spdlog before asio. Spdlog is including windows.h in a
way that causes winsock.h to be included that asio doesn't like and it
errors saying that winsock.h has already been included.

The solution was a preprocessor define of _WIN32_WINNT=600 (number might
need tweaking).

A quick fix would be to comment out line #170 in spdlog/details.os.h (and not use the z flag in the log pattern)

This will remove the need to define the offending =600 macro

I am going to close this issue for now as a fix is there, albeit not a pretty one.

@adam4813 Is the fix actually implemented?

[adam4813]

Derp. I realized I forgot to push it. I will push it later tonight.

Actually I did commit this on my fork in the networking branch.
