Currently we don't support version 2.0 of Paho. We might be able to at some point, but for now this is a backlog item. Is it possible for you to use 1.x instead?

Hi, thank you for the answer. paho-mqtt v2.0 offers more property functions to access protected variables and the static values are abstracted in enums which increases the readability but I refactored my code to v1.6 and it works too. There are no breaking changes which are required for me between the two versions.
