A value returned by [`from_bjdata`](https://json.nlohmann.me/api/basic_json/from_bjdata/index.md) can be serialized with [`to_bjdata`](https://json.nlohmann.me/api/basic_json/to_bjdata/index.md) using any combination of options and parsed back into an equal value, and serializing that value again with the same options produces the same bytes. The exception is binary values: they are only written as an optimized binary array (`[$B`) if Draft 3 is enabled and both `use_size` and `use_type` are set. Otherwise, they are written as arrays of integers and parsed back as such (see the notes on binary values above), and serializing such an array again may choose different, but equally valid, type markers. The bytes can then differ, but parsing them again yields the same value.

|

BSON requires every binary value to have a subtype. If a binary value has no subtype, this library serializes it with the generic subtype `0x00`. After deserialization, `has_subtype()` returns `true` and `subtype()` returns `0`. As a result, serializing and deserializing a JSON object containing such a value produces a different JSON object, even though the binary data is unchanged.

The BSON specification requires `string` values (type `0x02`) to be valid UTF-8. This library validates the bytes of every such string at decode time and rejects ill-formed UTF-8 with a [`parse_error.113`](https://json.nlohmann.me/home/exceptions/#jsonexceptionparse_error113) exception (or, with `allow_exceptions` set to `false`, a discarded value), rather than only failing later when the resulting value is dumped. Element (key) names and `binary` values (type `0x05`) are unaffected and are never validated, since they are read byte-by-byte as a C string, or are not required to hold text, respectively.

Tagged items (0xC0..0xDB) will throw a parse error by default. They can be ignored by passing `cbor_tag_handler_t::ignore` to function `from_cbor`, in which case the tag is skipped and the enclosed data item is parsed on its own. Passing `cbor_tag_handler_t::store` to function `from_cbor` stores tagged byte strings (for bytes 0xd8..0xdb) as binary values with the tag as subtype; other tagged values are read as if the tag were ignored. If several tags precede a byte string, only the innermost one is stored. Note that no tag is ever interpreted: for instance, a text string tagged with tag 0 (date/time) stays a string.

Tagged items (0xC0..0xDB) will throw a parse error by default. They can be ignored by passing `cbor_tag_handler_t::ignore` to function `from_cbor`, in which case the tag is skipped and the enclosed data item is parsed on its own. Passing `cbor_tag_handler_t::store` to function `from_cbor` stores tagged byte strings (for bytes 0xd8..0xdb) as binary values with the tag as subtype; other tagged values are read as if the tag were ignored. If several tags precede a byte string, only the innermost one is stored. Note that no tag is ever interpreted: for instance, a text string tagged with tag 0 (date/time) stays a string.

The MessagePack specification requires `str` values (`fixstr`, `str 8`, `str 16`, `str 32`) to be valid UTF-8. This library validates the bytes of every such string (object keys included) at decode time and rejects ill-formed UTF-8 with a [`parse_error.113`](https://json.nlohmann.me/home/exceptions/#jsonexceptionparse_error113) exception (or, with `allow_exceptions` set to `false`, a discarded value), rather than only failing later when the resulting value is dumped. `bin`/`ext`/`fixext` values are unaffected and are never validated, since they are not required to hold text.
