@brief general exception of the @ref json class
This class is an extension of `std::exception` objects with a member @a id for
exception ids. It is used as the base class for all exceptions thrown by the
@ref json class. This class can hence be used as "wildcard" to catch
exceptions.
Subclasses:
- @ref parse_error for exceptions indicating a parse error
- @ref invalid_iterator for exceptions indicating errors with iterators
- @ref type_error for exceptions indicating executing a member function with
a wrong type
- @ref out_of_range for exceptions indicating access out of the defined range
- @ref other_error for exceptions indicating other library errors
@internal
@note To have nothrow-copy-constructible exceptions, we internally use
`std::runtime_error` which can cope with arbitrary-length error messages.
Intermediate strings are built with static functions and then passed to
the actual constructor.

@brief exception indicating a parse error
This exception is thrown by the library when a parse error occurs. Parse errors
can occur during the deserialization of JSON text, CBOR, MessagePack, as well
as when using JSON Patch.
Member @a byte holds the byte index of the last read character in the input
file.
Exceptions have ids 1xx.
name / id | example message | description
------------------------------ | --------------- | -------------------------
json.exception.parse_error.101 | parse error at 2: unexpected end of input; expected string literal | This error indicates a syntax error while deserializing a JSON text. The error message describes that an unexpected token (character) was encountered, and the member @a byte indicates the error position.
json.exception.parse_error.102 | parse error at 14: missing or wrong low surrogate | JSON uses the `\uxxxx` format to describe Unicode characters. Code points above above 0xFFFF are split into two `\uxxxx` entries ("surrogate pairs"). This error indicates that the surrogate pair is incomplete or contains an invalid code point.
json.exception.parse_error.103 | parse error: code points above 0x10FFFF are invalid | Unicode supports code points up to 0x10FFFF. Code points above 0x10FFFF are invalid.
json.exception.parse_error.104 | parse error: JSON patch must be an array of objects | [RFC 6902](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6902) requires a JSON Patch document to be a JSON document that represents an array of objects.
json.exception.parse_error.105 | parse error: operation must have string member 'op' | An operation of a JSON Patch document must contain exactly one "op" member, whose value indicates the operation to perform. Its value must be one of "add", "remove", "replace", "move", "copy", or "test"; other values are errors.
json.exception.parse_error.106 | parse error: array index '01' must not begin with '0' | An array index in a JSON Pointer ([RFC 6901](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6901)) may be `0` or any number without a leading `0`.
json.exception.parse_error.107 | parse error: JSON pointer must be empty or begin with '/' - was: 'foo' | A JSON Pointer must be a Unicode string containing a sequence of zero or more reference tokens, each prefixed by a `/` character.
json.exception.parse_error.108 | parse error: escape character '~' must be followed with '0' or '1' | In a JSON Pointer, only `~0` and `~1` are valid escape sequences.
json.exception.parse_error.109 | parse error: array index 'one' is not a number | A JSON Pointer array index must be a number.
json.exception.parse_error.110 | parse error at 1: cannot read 2 bytes from vector | When parsing CBOR or MessagePack, the byte vector ends before the complete value has been read.
json.exception.parse_error.112 | parse error at 1: error reading CBOR; last byte: 0xF8 | Not all types of CBOR or MessagePack are supported. This exception occurs if an unsupported byte was read.
json.exception.parse_error.113 | parse error at 2: expected a CBOR string; last byte: 0x98 | While parsing a map key, a value that is not a string has been read.
@note For an input with n bytes, 1 is the index of the first character and n+1
is the index of the terminating null byte or the end of file. This also
holds true when reading a byte vector (CBOR or MessagePack).

----------------------------------- | --------------- | -------------------------
json.exception.invalid_iterator.201 | iterators are not compatible | The iterators passed to constructor @ref json(InputIT first, InputIT last) are not compatible, meaning they do not belong to the same container. Therefore, the range (@a first, @a last) is invalid.
json.exception.invalid_iterator.202 | iterator does not fit current value | In an erase or insert function, the passed iterator @a pos does not belong to the JSON value for which the function was called. It hence does not define a valid position for the deletion/insertion.
json.exception.invalid_iterator.203 | iterators do not fit current value | Either iterator passed to function @ref erase(IteratorType first, IteratorType last) does not belong to the JSON value from which values shall be erased. It hence does not define a valid range to delete values from.
json.exception.invalid_iterator.204 | iterators out of range | When an iterator range for a primitive type (number, boolean, or string) is passed to a constructor or an erase function, this range has to be exactly (@ref begin(), @ref end()), because this is the only way the single stored value is expressed. All other ranges are invalid.
json.exception.invalid_iterator.205 | iterator out of range | When an iterator for a primitive type (number, boolean, or string) is passed to an erase function, the iterator has to be the @ref begin() iterator, because it is the only way to address the stored value. All other iterators are invalid.
json.exception.invalid_iterator.206 | cannot construct with iterators from null | The iterators passed to constructor @ref json(InputIT first, InputIT last) belong to a JSON null value and hence to not define a valid range.
json.exception.invalid_iterator.207 | cannot use key() for non-object iterators | The key() member function can only be used on iterators belonging to a JSON object, because other types do not have a concept of a key.
json.exception.invalid_iterator.208 | cannot use operator[] for object iterators | The operator[] to specify a concrete offset cannot be used on iterators belonging to a JSON object, because JSON objects are unordered.
json.exception.invalid_iterator.209 | cannot use offsets with object iterators | The offset operators (+, -, +=, -=) cannot be used on iterators belonging to a JSON object, because JSON objects are unordered.
json.exception.invalid_iterator.210 | iterators do not fit | The iterator range passed to the insert function are not compatible, meaning they do not belong to the same container. Therefore, the range (@a first, @a last) is invalid.
json.exception.invalid_iterator.211 | passed iterators may not belong to container | The iterator range passed to the insert function must not be a subrange of the container to insert to.
json.exception.invalid_iterator.212 | cannot compare iterators of different containers | When two iterators are compared, they must belong to the same container.
json.exception.invalid_iterator.213 | cannot compare order of object iterators | The order of object iterators cannot be compared, because JSON objects are unordered.
json.exception.invalid_iterator.214 | cannot get value | Cannot get value for iterator: Either the iterator belongs to a null value or it is an iterator to a primitive type (number, boolean, or string), but the iterator is different to @ref begin().

----------------------------- | --------------- | -------------------------
json.exception.type_error.301 | cannot create object from initializer list | To create an object from an initializer list, the initializer list must consist only of a list of pairs whose first element is a string. When this constraint is violated, an array is created instead.
json.exception.type_error.302 | type must be object, but is array | During implicit or explicit value conversion, the JSON type must be compatible to the target type. For instance, a JSON string can only be converted into string types, but not into numbers or boolean types.

/*!
@brief the JSON type enumeration
This enumeration collects the different JSON types. It is internally used to
distinguish the stored values, and the functions @ref json::is_null(),
@ref json::is_object(), @ref json::is_array(),
@ref json::is_string(), @ref json::is_boolean(),
@ref json::is_number() (with @ref json::is_number_integer(),
@ref json::is_number_unsigned(), and @ref json::is_number_float()),
@ref json::is_discarded(), @ref json::is_primitive(), and
@ref json::is_structured() rely on it.
@note There are three enumeration entries (number_integer, number_unsigned, and
number_float), because the library distinguishes these three types for numbers:
uint64_t is used for unsigned integers,
int64_t is used for signed integers, and
double is used for floating-point numbers or to
approximate integers which do not fit in the limits of their respective type.

value with the default value for a given type

@brief a template for a bidirectional iterator for the @ref json class
This class implements a both iterators (iterator and const_iterator) for the
@ref json class.
@note An iterator is called *initialized* when a pointer to a JSON value has
been set (e.g., by a constructor or a copy assignment). If the iterator is
default-constructed, it is *uninitialized* and most methods are undefined.
**The library uses assertions to detect calls on uninitialized iterators.**
@requirement The class satisfies the following concept requirements:
-
[BidirectionalIterator](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/BidirectionalIterator):
The iterator that can be moved can be moved in both directions (i.e.
incremented and decremented).
@since version 1.0.0, simplified in version 2.0.9, change to bidirectional
iterators in version 3.0.0 (see https://github.com/nlohmann/json/issues/593)

value.
- [MoveConstructible](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/MoveConstructible):
A JSON value can be constructed from an rvalue argument.
- [CopyConstructible](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/CopyConstructible):

- Layout
- [StandardLayoutType](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/StandardLayoutType):
JSON values have
[standard layout](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/data_members#Standard_layout):
All non-static data members are private and standard layout types, the
class has no virtual functions or (virtual) base classes.
- Library-wide
- [EqualityComparable](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/EqualityComparable):
JSON values can be compared with `==`, see @ref
operator==(const_reference,const_reference).
- [LessThanComparable](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/LessThanComparable):
JSON values can be compared with `<`, see @ref
operator<(const_reference,const_reference).
- [Swappable](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/Swappable):
Any JSON lvalue or rvalue of can be swapped with any lvalue or rvalue of
other compatible types, using unqualified function call @ref swap().
- [NullablePointer](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/NullablePointer):
JSON values can be compared against `std::nullptr_t` objects which are used
to model the `null` value.
- Container
- [Container](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/Container):
JSON values can be used like STL containers and provide iterator access.
- [ReversibleContainer](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/ReversibleContainer);
JSON values can be used like STL containers and provide reverse iterator
access.
@invariant The member variables @a m_value and @a m_type have the following
relationship:
- If `m_type == value_t::object`, then `m_value.object != nullptr`.
- If `m_type == value_t::array`, then `m_value.array != nullptr`.
- If `m_type == value_t::string`, then `m_value.string != nullptr`.
The invariants are checked by member function assert_invariant().

@brief a type for an object
[RFC 7159](http://rfc7159.net/rfc7159) describes JSON objects as follows:
> An object is an unordered collection of zero or more name/value pairs,
> where a name is a string and a value is a string, number, boolean, null,
> object, or array.
#### Behavior
The choice of @a object_t influences the behavior of the JSON class. With
the default type, objects have the following behavior:
- When all names are unique, objects will be interoperable in the sense
that all software implementations receiving that object will agree on
the name-value mappings.
- When the names within an object are not unique, it is unspecified which
one of the values for a given key will be chosen. For instance,
`{"key": 2, "key": 1}` could be equal to either `{"key": 1}` or
`{"key": 2}`.
- Internally, name/value pairs are stored in lexicographical order of the
names. Objects will also be serialized (see @ref dump) in this order.
For instance, `{"b": 1, "a": 2}` and `{"a": 2, "b": 1}` will be stored
and serialized as `{"a": 2, "b": 1}`.
- When comparing objects, the order of the name/value pairs is irrelevant.
This makes objects interoperable in the sense that they will not be
affected by these differences. For instance, `{"b": 1, "a": 2}` and
`{"a": 2, "b": 1}` will be treated as equal.
#### Limits
[RFC 7159](http://rfc7159.net/rfc7159) specifies:
> An implementation may set limits on the maximum depth of nesting.
In this class, the object's limit of nesting is not explicitly constrained.
However, a maximum depth of nesting may be introduced by the compiler or
runtime environment. A theoretical limit can be queried by calling the
@ref max_size function of a JSON object.
#### Storage
Objects are stored as pointers in a @ref json type. That is, for any
access to object values, a pointer of type `object_t*` must be
dereferenced.
@since version 1.0.0
@note The order name/value pairs are added to the object is *not*
preserved by the library. Therefore, iterating an object may return
name/value pairs in a different order than they were originally stored. In
fact, keys will be traversed in alphabetical order as `std::map` with
`std::less` is used by default. Please note this behavior conforms to [RFC
7159](http://rfc7159.net/rfc7159), because any order implements the
specified "unordered" nature of JSON objects.

#### Limits

> An implementation may set limits on the maximum depth of nesting.
In this class, the array's limit of nesting is not explicitly constrained.

@brief per-element parser callback type
With a parser callback function, the result of parsing a JSON text can be
influenced. When passed to @ref parse, it is called on certain events
(passed as @ref parse_event_t via parameter @a event) with a set recursion
depth @a depth and context JSON value @a parsed. The return value of the
callback function is a boolean indicating whether the element that emitted
the callback shall be kept or not.
We distinguish six scenarios (determined by the event type) in which the
callback function can be called. The following table describes the values
of the parameters @a depth, @a event, and @a parsed.
parameter @a event | description | parameter @a depth | parameter @a parsed
------------------ | ----------- | ------------------ | -------------------
parse_event_t::object_start | the parser read `{` and started to process a JSON object | depth of the parent of the JSON object | a JSON value with type discarded
parse_event_t::key | the parser read a key of a value in an object | depth of the currently parsed JSON object | a JSON string containing the key
parse_event_t::object_end | the parser read `}` and finished processing a JSON object | depth of the parent of the JSON object | the parsed JSON object
parse_event_t::array_start | the parser read `[` and started to process a JSON array | depth of the parent of the JSON array | a JSON value with type discarded
parse_event_t::array_end | the parser read `]` and finished processing a JSON array | depth of the parent of the JSON array | the parsed JSON array
parse_event_t::value | the parser finished reading a JSON value | depth of the value | the parsed JSON value
@image html callback_events.png "Example when certain parse events are triggered"
Discarding a value (i.e., returning `false`) has different effects
depending on the context in which function was called:
- Discarded values in structured types are skipped. That is, the parser
will behave as if the discarded value was never read.
- In case a value outside a structured type is skipped, it is replaced
with `null`. This case happens if the top-level element is skipped.
@param[in] depth the depth of the recursion during parsing
@param[in] event an event of type parse_event_t indicating the context in
the callback function has been called
@param[in,out] parsed the current intermediate parse result; note that
writing to this value has no effect for parse_event_t::key events
@return Whether the JSON value which called the function during parsing
should be kept (`true`) or not (`false`). In the latter case, it is either
skipped completely or replaced by an empty discarded object.

@brief create a container (array or object) from an initializer list
Creates a JSON value of type array or object from the passed initializer
list @a init. In case @a type_deduction is `true` (default), the type of
the JSON value to be created is deducted from the initializer list @a init
according to the following rules:
1. If the list is empty, an empty JSON object value `{}` is created.
2. If the list consists of pairs whose first element is a string, a JSON
object value is created where the first elements of the pairs are
treated as keys and the second elements are as values.
3. In all other cases, an array is created.
The rules aim to create the best fit between a C++ initializer list and
JSON values. The rationale is as follows:
1. The empty initializer list is written as `{}` which is exactly an empty
JSON object.
2. C++ has no way of describing mapped types other than to list a list of
pairs. As JSON requires that keys must be of type string, rule 2 is the
weakest constraint one can pose on initializer lists to interpret them
as an object.
3. In all other cases, the initializer list could not be interpreted as
JSON object type, so interpreting it as JSON array type is safe.
With the rules described above, the following JSON values cannot be
expressed by an initializer list:
- the empty array (`[]`): use @ref array(initializer_list_t)
with an empty initializer list in this case
- arrays whose elements satisfy rule 2: use @ref
array(initializer_list_t) with the same initializer list
in this case
@note When used without parentheses around an empty initializer list, @ref
json() is called instead of this function, yielding the JSON null
value.
@param[in] init initializer list with JSON values
@param[in] type_deduction internal parameter; when set to `true`, the type
of the JSON value is deducted from the initializer list @a init; when set
to `false`, the type provided via @a manual_type is forced. This mode is
used by the functions @ref array(initializer_list_t) and
@ref object(initializer_list_t).
@param[in] manual_type internal parameter; when @a type_deduction is set
to `false`, the created JSON value will use the provided type (only @ref
value_t::array and @ref value_t::object are valid); when @a type_deduction
is set to `true`, this parameter has no effect
@throw type_error.301 if @a type_deduction is `false`, @a manual_type is
`value_t::object`, but @a init contains an element which is not a pair
whose first element is a string. In this case, the constructor could not
create an object. If @a type_deduction would have be `true`, an array
would have been created. See @ref object(initializer_list_t)
for an example.
@complexity Linear in the size of the initializer list @a init.

changes to any JSON value.

@brief construct a JSON container given an iterator range
Constructs the JSON value with the contents of the range `[first, last)`.
The semantics depends on the different types a JSON value can have:

- In case of other primitive types (number, boolean, or string), @a first
must be `begin()` and @a last must be `end()`. In this case, the value is
copied. Otherwise, invalid_iterator.204 is thrown.
- In case of structured types (array, object), the constructor behaves as
similar versions for `std::vector` or `std::map`; that is, a JSON array

checked efficiently. Only certain edge cases are detected; see the

yields undefined behavior.

result in calling `std::abort` if this precondition is not met.
Assertions can be disabled by defining `NDEBUG` at compile time.

@brief deserialize from a compatible input
This function reads from a compatible input. Examples are:
- an array of 1-byte values
- strings with character/literal type with size of 1 byte
- input streams
- container with contiguous storage of 1-byte values. Compatible container
types include `std::vector`, `std::string`, `std::array`,
and `std::initializer_list`. Furthermore, C-style
arrays can be used with `std::begin()`/`std::end()`. User-defined
containers can be used as long as they implement random-access iterators
and a contiguous storage.
@pre Each element of the container has a size of 1 byte. Violating this
precondition yields undefined behavior. **This precondition is enforced
with a static assertion.**

Serializes a given JSON value @a j to a byte vector using the CBOR (Concise

@brief create a JSON value from an input in UBJSON format
Deserializes a given input @a i to a JSON value using the UBJSON (Universal
Binary JSON) serialization format.
The library maps UBJSON types to JSON value types as follows:
UBJSON type | JSON value type | marker
----------- | --------------------------------------- | ------
no-op | *no value, next value is read* | `N`
null | `null` | `Z`
false | `false` | `F`
true | `true` | `T`
float32 | number_float | `d`
float64 | number_float | `D`
uint8 | number_unsigned | `U`
int8 | number_integer | `i`
int16 | number_integer | `I`
int32 | number_integer | `l`
int64 | number_integer | `L`
string | string | `S`
char | string | `C`
array | array (optimized values are supported) | `[`
object | object (optimized values are supported) | `{`
@note The mapping is **complete** in the sense that any UBJSON value can
be converted to a JSON value.
@param[in] i an input in UBJSON format convertible to an input adapter
@param[in] strict whether to expect the input to be consumed until EOF
(true by default)
@throw parse_error.110 if the given input ends prematurely or the end of

@brief applies a JSON Merge Patch
The merge patch format is primarily intended for use with the HTTP PATCH
method as a means of describing a set of modifications to a target
resource's content. This function applies a merge patch to the current
JSON value.
The function implements the following algorithm from Section 2 of
[RFC 7396 (JSON Merge Patch)](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7396):
```
define MergePatch(Target, Patch):
if Patch is an Object:
if Target is not an Object:
Target = {} // Ignore the contents and set it to an empty Object
for each Name/Value pair in Patch:
if Value is null:
if Name exists in Target:
remove the Name/Value pair from Target
else:
Target[Name] = MergePatch(Target[Name], Value)
return Target
else:
return Patch
```
Thereby, `Target` is the current object; that is, the patch is applied to
the current value.
@param[in] patch the patch to apply
@complexity Linear in the lengths of @a patch.
