c++ Debug Assertion Failed on HTTP Request - c++

Question

I'm doing some code where i need to do a GET request and manipulate the info received. For this i'm using C++ REST SDK (codename "Casablanca") for the request
This is my code
#include <cpprest/http_client.h>
#include <cpprest/filestream.h>
using namespace utility;
using namespace web;
using namespace web::http;
using namespace web::http::client;
using namespace concurrency::streams;
//This method i saw on the Microsoft documentation
pplx::task<void> HTTPStreamingAsync()
{
http_client client(L"http://localhost:10000/Something"); //The api is running at the moment
// Make the request and asynchronously process the response.
return client.request(methods::GET).then([](http_response response)
{
// Print the status code.
std::wostringstream ss;
ss << L"Server returned returned status code " << response.status_code() << L'.' << std::endl;
std::wcout << ss.str();
// TODO: Perform actions here reading from the response stream.
auto bodyStream = response.body();
// In this example, we print the length of the response to the console.
ss.str(std::wstring());
ss << L"Content length is " << response.headers().content_length() << L" bytes." << std::endl;
std::wcout << ss.str();
});
}
void main(int argc, char **argv)
{
HTTPStreamingAsync().wait();
//...
}
And when i use debug i get error on the following line:
return client.request(methods::GET).then([](http_response response)
With debug i see that variable "client" has content, but i still receive this error:
Image with the Error Message
I google it the error, and most of the people say that it is error on the code (trying to access some parts of the memory)...
Any ideas?

This issue can happen when the cpprestsdk DLL is build with Multi-Threaded DLL /MD and the calling library is build with Multi-Threaded /MT. Since the cpprestsdk does not offer a configuration for a .lib file, you are forced to use /MD. At least that is best to my knowledge, as I haven't been able to compile cpprestsdk.lib out of the box without a bunch of linker errors.
