Niels Lohmann	43e97b629b	Add element access, iteration, values, and JSON pointers to json_view (#5622) ... * Add element access, iteration, values, and JSON pointers to json_view Give basic_json_view the read-only access functions of basic_json: operator[] and at() with keys and indices, front()/back(), find(), contains(), count(), begin()/end() and cbegin()/cend(), items() with structured bindings from C++17 on, and type_name(). Exceptions have the ids and messages of the const functions of basic_json. Where basic_json has undefined behavior the view answers safely: operator[] with a missing key or an out-of-range index returns a discarded view, and front()/back() of an empty container throw invalid_iterator.214. Objects are iterated in document order, and all members are visited; duplicate-key lookups find the first member (as yyjson and simdjson do), while parse(), materialize(), and the map conversions keep the last value, as parse() does. Keys of up to 16 bytes are compared with two overlapping loads. Add value conversions: get<T>()/get_to() for arithmetic types, bool, nullptr_t, strings (std::basic_string copied, string_view_t without a copy), BasicJsonType, views, std::vector, and maps with string keys; get_string() for the string without a copy; number_token() for the number exactly as written in the source; value() with keys and JSON pointers; and operator[]/at()/ contains() with JSON pointers. Everything else, including types with from_json(), goes through materialize() of that subtree. get<T>() of arithmetic types is inlined down to the conversion, so reading an integer needs no call. detail::json_pointer_access exposes a pointer's reference tokens to code outside basic_json. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Make view lookups last-wins and chained access safe * Lookups (operator[], at, find, contains, count, value, JSON pointers) return the last member of a duplicate key, as materialize() and parse() keep it. * operator[] on a discarded view returns a discarded view instead of throwing, so v["a"]["b"] is safe for a missing "a". * operator[] and at() take any integer type (not only int and size_t), fixing ambiguous calls with unsigned, long, std::int64_t, ... * Fix the operator[] documentation, which claimed a discarded view for a type mismatch where type_error.305 is thrown. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Replace the removed operator bool of basic_json_view in the header and its tests A view is tested with is_discarded(); the lookups in at(), value() and contains(json_pointer) and the unit tests no longer rely on the explicit conversion to bool. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Use named documents in the json_view tests that called root() on a temporary root() of an rvalue document is deleted, because the views would dangle. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Test discarded views with is_discarded() in the operator[] docs and examples The explicit conversion to bool of basic_json_view is gone. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Return the first member of duplicate keys from lookups again Looking up the last member of a duplicate key cannot stop at a match, so every lookup scanned the whole object (1.6 to 3.4 times slower for small objects). operator[](key), at, find, value, contains, count, and JSON pointer resolution return the first member again, as yyjson and simdjson do; materialize() and get<map>() keep the last value, as parse(). The documentation says so in the feature page and on each lookup page, and explains how to get the value parse() would give. The integer index templates and the discarded chaining of operator[] stay. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Do not force-inline the view's functions on MSVC __forceinline makes MSVC report C4714 for function templates it cannot inline (get<std::string>), an error under /WX. The forced inlining is only a performance hint, so use plain inline there. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Make json_view.hpp pass include-what-you-use Mark the includes that are needed by design (json.hpp, the macro unscope, <tuple> for the tuple_size specialization), take size_t from <cstring>, and drop the forward declaration of basic_json_document that the friend declaration makes redundant. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Avoid GCC useless-cast warnings in the integer index tests Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Make json_view.hpp pass include-what-you-use ci_single_binaries runs IWYU with --error on every header. For json_view.hpp it suggested adding <array> (std::array is used), the headers that json.hpp already provides (abi_config, abi_macros, input_adapters, json_pointer, cpp_future, string_concat, value_t, json_fwd), and <version> for std::nullptr_t, and removing <cstddef>. - include <array> - keep <cstddef> (nullptr_t, size_t; IWYU attributes them to <version> and <cstring>) - tell IWYU not to suggest the headers that json.hpp provides: the amalgamated json_view.hpp only includes json.hpp, so including them here would duplicate their definitions Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Fix the clang-tidy 22 findings in json_view and its tests The same changes as on the dump branch, where they were first made, so that this branch passes clang-tidy on its own. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Regenerate the amalgamated headers Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Report one-character non-numeric array indices like basic_json in the view Develop's #5800 made basic_json report a JSON pointer array index such as "/a" as parse_error.109 instead of out_of_range.404, as longer ones were; the view's array_index() follows, with "-" and the empty token still unresolved. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Address the review of json_view element access From gregmarr's review of #5622: - count() counts every member with the key, so count(key) > 1 detects duplicate keys; it was contains() as 0/1 before. - get_to() passes types that get<T>() does not convert directly to from_json with the existing value, as basic_json::get_to() does, so that a from_json which sets only the fields present keeps the others. - array_index() checks the empty token and "-" first; the results are unchanged. - Docs: no "if an exception is thrown" where a view never changes anything; the borrowed source must also stay unmodified; items() on a temporary view is safe; back()/front() notes shortened; the basic_json see-also entries say how the view's results can differ. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Regenerate the amalgamated headers Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Count matching keys as unsigned in the json_view access test The conditional added 1 or 0 as int to a std::size_t, which GCC rejects with -Werror=sign-conversion (ci_test_standards_gcc). Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Address the second review round of json_view element access From gregmarr's review of #5622: - begin()/end(): "a null value or a discarded view iterates as an empty range", singular like the primitive case before it. - The class page's list of function groups has no trailing commas. - document_data::key_equals() compares a key node with a string, for the key comparisons that were spelled out in each lookup. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Regenerate the amalgamated headers Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Write the negated enable_if conditions of json_view with negation<> With a ! or && in the condition, astyle spaces the whole template header (template < ... >); detail::negation and a named trait keep it compact, as the library writes such conditions elsewhere. From gregmarr's review of #5630. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Regenerate the amalgamated headers Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Keep detail::negation out of json_view.hpp's enable_ifs include-what-you-use asks json_view.hpp to include detail/meta/type_traits.hpp for it, which the single header must not do (the amalgamation would duplicate json's internals). The two conditions of value() go through a trait in value.hpp, like the others.

Niels Lohmann	122d718330	Add json_document and json_view: node index, parser, and document (#5620) ... * Add json_document and json_view: node index, parser, and document Add json_document and json_view, a read-only, zero-copy index of a JSON text, as the first public slice of the zero-copy view (#5295). A parse produces a flat array of 16-byte nodes in document order, one per value and one per object key. Strings stay in the source text; escaped strings are decoded into an arena. Integers are converted while their digits are in the cache; floats keep only their digit layout and are converted on read. Containers store the size of their subtree, so a reader can step over one in constant time. A document makes a handful of allocations, however many values it has. The parser accepts exactly what json::parse accepts, with every combination of ignore_comments and ignore_trailing_commas, with and without a trailing NUL, and under JSON_STRICT_NUL_HANDLING. It is portable C++11 and does not depend on byte order. basic_json_document adds parse, parse_copy, accept, read (reuses a document's memory), root, is_discarded, source, owns_source, node_count, memory_usage, and shrink_to_fit. basic_json_view adds type, the is_* queries, operator bool, size, empty, materialize, and source_offset. A parse error throws the same exception basic_json::parse would throw for the same input, message and position included. detail::abi_config keeps JSON_STRICT_NUL_HANDLING and JSON_USE_LEGACY_DISCARDED_VALUE_COMPARISON readable after json.hpp undefines them, in the ABI namespace so they always match the basic_json in use. A NUL byte that ends a // comment is the end of the input, as in parse() since #5696. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Fix document_data for old Clang (3.4-3.6) Drop the empty braced NSDMIs of the std::string members: old Clang rejects the defaulted constructor when it is used by a member initializer before the end of the class definition. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Exclude libstdc++'s string_view comparison from the sign-change check basic_string_view::_S_compare stores the difference of two lengths in a signed difference_type on purpose, which -fsanitize=integer reports for every comparison with a shorter view (test-json_view_cpp17). Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Reject integer lengths in json_document::parse parse(ptr, len) compiled: len converted to allow_exceptions, and ptr was read as a C string, past the end of a buffer without a terminating NUL. Delete the overloads of parse, parse_copy, accept, and read that take an integer other than bool where the flags are expected. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Copy const rvalue strings and document the accepted inputs json_document::parse(std::move(const_string)) failed to compile with "no matching read_kind": only a non-const rvalue std::string can be moved from. Treat a const rvalue as a copied byte container. parse() does not accept everything BasicJsonType::parse() does: a FILE* and pointers to or arrays of wide characters are rejected at compile time. List the supported inputs instead. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Remove the conversion to bool from json_view explicit operator bool meant "refers to a value", which silently differs from what a basic_json converts to. Use !v.is_discarded() instead. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Delete json_document::root() on temporary documents auto v = json_document::parse(text).root() compiled and left the view dangling. Delete the overload for rvalue documents, take a named document in the tests, and document the lifetime rule. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Store node integers by halves on big-endian targets The non-little-endian path of the node writer wrote the integer's native word over len and next, so len got the high half there. Compose and split the value explicitly (len is the low half, next the high half); the little-endian path stays a plain memcpy. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Check the node array size for overflow reserve(n) and the growth of the index computed n * sizeof(node) without a check, which wraps around on 32-bit targets for inputs of about 1 GiB and allocates a too small array. Throw std::bad_alloc for a count beyond the address space and clamp the growth step to it. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * State the exact input size limit of json_document The check rejects inputs of 0xFFFFFFF0 bytes or more, but the exception message and the documentation said 4 GiB. Name the limit once (max_input_size), and state 4 GiB minus 16 bytes in the message and the documentation. Test the limit with a container that only claims the size. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Remove the unused legacy_discarded_value_comparison from abi_config Nothing reads it: the view does not compare values. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Align the banner comment of json_view.hpp Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Fuzz json_document with exact-size buffers and parse options The fuzzer only parsed a std::string with default options. Also parse an exact-size byte vector, which has no NUL after its last byte and takes the bounds-checked path, and derive ignore_comments and ignore_trailing_commas from the first input byte, comparing against json::parse and json::accept with the same options.

For json_view.hpp it suggested adding <array> (std::array is used), the headers that json.hpp already provides (abi_config, abi_macros, input_adapters, json_pointer, cpp_future, string_concat, value_t, json_fwd), and <version> for std::nullptr_t, and removing <cstddef>. - include <array> - keep <cstddef> (nullptr_t, size_t; IWYU attributes them to <version> and <cstring>) - tell IWYU not to suggest the headers that json.hpp provides: the amalgamated json_view.hpp only includes json.hpp, so including them here would duplicate their definitions - export json.hpp, keep macro_unscope.hpp, and drop the unused forward declaration of the document class Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Read the node array base after emit() in the view builder's open() emit() moves the node array when it grows, and the subtraction read base in the same expression, so the order was unspecified. MSVC Release builds without forced inlining read the old base; the container index then pointed outside the array and close() wrote out of bounds. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Silence a clang-tidy use-after-move finding in the json_view test const_text is const, so std::move does not move from it; the second call is part of the const rvalue test. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Regenerate the amalgamated headers Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Address the review of the view builder and document Changes promised in the replies to the review of #5620: - read() reuses the owned copy: a copied input (an rvalue byte container, a stream, FILE*, wide characters, an iterator range) is appended to the cleared owned buffer instead of a fresh std::string being move-assigned over it. A moved-in std::string still replaces it. - The error replay runs the library parser with a SAX handler that stores nothing and throws the reported exception, instead of BasicJsonType::parse(), which built a DOM up to the error. - Pointers to and arrays of wide characters, and FILE*, take the input adapter path (converted to UTF-8 into an owned buffer) instead of failing a static_assert. Wide pointers are NUL-terminated. - Streams are read in blocks through rdbuf() into the buffer, instead of character by character through the input adapter; eofbit is set at the end, as by the library's stream adapter. - tape/tape_size/tape_cap are now nodes/node_count/node_capacity. - The builder's members get descriptive, m_-prefixed names. - The shallow frame stack is a std::array (in a wrapper with a user-provided constructor: -Weffc++ wants the member initialized, and value-initializing the 64 frames costs up to 30 % on small documents). - The value dispatch macro has no NEXT parameter; the switch is left with break, and the macro is undefined after its last use. - literal() and digits_exceed() deduce the length from the string literal; each literal has one helper; the two `if (!is_float)` blocks are merged. - arena_ensure() sits right before the writes; the decode arena is a std::vector<char>. - The builder records the deepest nesting, and materialize() sizes its stack from it once (growing it only if a subtree is deeper). - Comment fixes (hex4, slow_string, the NUL rule, put_utf8, 0 - m, the arena resize, grow()) and formatting (macro backslashes, digit cases, one power of ten per line, value_t assertion next to is_container()). - build_with's template parameters follow the builder's order. Greg's idea of keeping the source offset in `off` and the arena offset in `next` for escaped strings was measured and not adopted: string access got 7-18 % slower with a select, and 3.5-18 % slower with a branch-free field pick (Apple M-series, clang -O3), parsing was unchanged. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Apply the review's wording fixes to the json_view documentation - Copying is disabled because of its cost, not because of two documents borrowing the same buffer; the unique_ptr follows from move-only. - Inputs: streams, FILE*, and wide characters (strings, arrays, pointers) are all supported and owned; point to parse_copy() for owned copies. - The error replay only runs for failing input, builds no values, and is skipped with allow_exceptions = false. - read() writes copied inputs into the previous owned copy. - Views can dangle like std::string_view, and why there is no shared/weak pointer design. - The 4 GiB limit (16-byte nodes, 16-byte scanner steps), streams being read to the end first, which macros apply, why materialize() has no source positions, and wording nits (accept() vs basic_json::accept(), is_binary, is_discarded, see-also lists, size table, "back into"). Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Say that json_view converts integers while parsing Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Address the review: null inline nodes, trait spelling, and max() in json_view - inline_nodes is null when the document has no inline nodes, instead of pointing past the end of the allocation; shrink_to_fit() no longer passes it to memcpy() for an empty node array - is_byte_char and is_wide_char use conjunction/disjunction, which astyle leaves unspaced - append_stream() uses (std::max) for the count read Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Include materialize.hpp in the view builder test The test calls detail::view::materialize(), which only the single header pulled in; the multiple-header build (JSON_TEST_USING_MULTIPLE_HEADERS) failed with "'materialize' is not a member of detail::view". Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Rename emit() in the view builder for Qt compatibility Qt defines emit as an empty macro, so a Qt header included before json_view.hpp broke the declaration of the builder's emit(), see issue #5865. It is now called push_node(). Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Do not copy an empty run into an unallocated arena memcpy() must not be passed a null pointer even for zero bytes, which arena_run() did for an empty run while the arena was still empty (ci_test_clang_sanitizer: "null pointer passed as argument 1" in builder.hpp). Only the slow path can see such a run. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Exclude the view builder test from Infer's reports Infer's std::unique_ptr model confuses the values that the test's build() helper returns by value and reports USE_AFTER_DELETE for one of them after the destructor of an unrelated temporary (ci_infer, 12 reports, all in tests/src/unit-json_view_builder.cpp). AddressSanitizer is clean on the same tests. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Skip the deleted-overload checks of json_view on MSVC 2015 MSVC 2015 does not treat selecting a deleted function in decltype as a substitution failure, so is_detected reports the deleted parse/parse_copy/accept/read(ptr, len) overloads as callable and the static_asserts in "integer arguments do not compile" fail (AppVeyor VS2015 jobs). Calling them still fails to compile there. Guard the negative checks as unit-delete_deprecated_functions.cpp does.
