Niels Lohmann	898e6ee81d	Add benchmarks for SAX parsing, value operations, JSON Pointer, and conversions (#5845) ... Squashed onto develop cd6b428ef (CI fixes from #5860). Original commits: - Add benchmarks for SAX parsing, value operations, JSON Pointer, and conversions - Time copies together with their destruction in the benchmarks - Time destroying the json in ToJsonStrings Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me>	2026-10-21 12:25:42 +02:00
Niels Lohmann	4c3a3eb5b5	Add dump() and comparisons to json_view (#5624) ... * Add dump() and comparisons to json_view Add basic_json_view::dump() and the comparison operators, and read floats from the parser's digit layout instead of rescanning the token. dump(indent, indent_char, ensure_ascii, number_format) writes a value the way ordered_json::parse(text).dump() writes it for the same arguments: members in document order, all of them should a key occur more than once; strings escaped by the same rules, using the library's scanning kernels; floats written with the library's to_chars conversion, so the output equals basic_json's byte for byte; integers copied from the source, where they are already canonical, except -0, which parse() reads as 0. There is no error_handler argument, because the view only holds valid UTF-8. number_format::source copies numbers exactly as they appear in the source (e.g. "1.50", "1E2", "-0"), which basic_json cannot provide. operator<< takes the indentation from the stream width, as for basic_json. The writer walks iteratively, so nesting depth is limited by memory only. operator== and operator!= compare two views, or a view and a basic_json value in either order, by the rules basic_json's operator== uses: numbers compare by value across their types, objects compare by their members with duplicate keys resolved as parse() resolves them, member order matters only where the object type keeps one, and discarded views compare as discarded basic_json values do, including under JSON_USE_LEGACY_DISCARDED_VALUE_COMPARISON. Nothing is materialized except single scalars. While parsing, the view now records where the integer digits, the fraction digits, and the exponent of a float token are, so floats and doubles with at most 19 digits are read from that layout with the library's decimal_to_float() instead of rescanning the token. Both round correctly, so the values are those of parse(). get<double>(), materialize(), dump(), and the comparisons all use it.

Skip a few such nodes, cap the fallback estimate, and shrink a buffer that is much larger than its output. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Hold the documents of the dump and comparison tests in names root() of a temporary document is deleted: its views would dangle. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Do not shrink the output of dump() finish() copied the whole output when the buffer was more than twice as large as the result (citm dump +11%). The tighter source_extent() estimate already keeps the buffer of a small value small. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Document and test first-wins lookups next to dump() and == dump() writes every member and == resolves duplicate keys as parse() does, whereas lookups find the first member of a duplicate key. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Fix the clang-tidy 22 findings in json_view and its tests Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Split the dump and comparison tests off unit-json_view.cpp The MinGW linker of the Windows clang jobs cannot link object files with more than 32767 sections ("relocation truncated to fit: IMAGE_REL_AMD64_REL32 against `.rdata'"). unit-json_view.cpp reaches that limit as the stack grows, so its "json_view dump" and "json_view comparison" test cases move into unit-json_view_dump.cpp. The test generator and has_duplicate_keys() that both files use move into json_view_test_helpers.hpp. The new file mentions JSON_HAS_CPP_17, so it is built for C++17 like the file it was split from. 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> * Regenerate the amalgamated headers Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Follow the renames from the review of the view builder The review of #5620 renamed document_data's tape/tape_size/tape_cap to nodes/node_count/node_capacity and made the decode arena a std::vector<char>; adapt the code of this change to it. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Keep the stream includes of json_view.hpp for IWYU json_view.hpp uses std::istream and std::ostream itself, but IWYU sees them through the exported json.hpp and asked to remove both includes, which fails ci_single_binaries (single_json_view). Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Address the review of json_view dump() and comparisons From gregmarr's review of #5624: - The output buffer takes string literals without a length. - write_float() names the IEEE single/double condition once, as the library's serializer does. - equal() checks the types first and compares with !=; the reference to the top frame is noted as dangling after pop_back(). - dump.md: one paragraph per case in the notes. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Regenerate the amalgamated headers Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Exclude all json_view test files from Infer's reports The same std::unique_ptr false positive (USE_AFTER_DELETE) also shows for two json_documents parsed in one lambda in unit-json_view_dump.cpp (ci_infer). It affects any test that holds several documents, so the exclusion now covers tests/src/unit-json_view*.cpp; ASan and Valgrind cover these tests. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Allow the string literal parameter of the view serializer's put() for clang-tidy The overload takes the literal by array reference so that its length is a template parameter, like scan_literal() and the C array overloads of to_json() and from_json().

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. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Give document_data a user-provided constructor Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Fix clang-tidy findings in unit-json_view_builder.cpp Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Annotate intentional patterns in unit-json_view.cpp for clang-tidy Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Suppress Flawfinder's read() finding on the deleted overload Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Check the steps of the deep-nesting test separately Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Make max_input_size a function (GCC -Wunused-const-variable) 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 - 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.

Niels Lohmann	ec4bdc398a	Document the benchmarks, make them build and compare versions again, and pin Google Benchmark (#5556) ... * Document the benchmarks, and make them build and compare versions again The benchmark project hasn't configured since #4793: download_test_data.cmake compiles cmake/detect_libcpp_version.cpp relative to CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR, which is tests/benchmarks when that is the top-level project, so try_run fails and so does `make run_benchmarks`. The path is now relative to the module itself, which is the same file for the main build. The Dump benchmark discarded dump()'s result, which is [[nodiscard]] by now; it warned, and left the optimizer free to shorten the loop. The result is now kept with benchmark::DoNotOptimize. A new cache variable, JSON_BENCHMARK_INCLUDE_DIR, names the directory holding the nlohmann/json.hpp to benchmark (single_include by default, as before), so the same benchmarks can be built against two versions and compared. tests/benchmarks/README.md documents what is measured, how to build and run the benchmarks, how to read the output, and how to compare two versions with Google Benchmark's compare.py; it recommends doing so by hand before a release rather than in CI. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Point ci_benchmarks at tests/benchmarks The target has configured ${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/benchmarks since it was added in #2561, but the benchmarks live in tests/benchmarks. Signed-off-by: Niels Lohmann <mail@nlohmann.me> * Pin Google Benchmark to release 1.9.5 The benchmarks fetched Google Benchmark's main branch, so two builds on different days could measure with different library code, and CMake 3.30 and later warn that the single-argument FetchContent_Populate() is deprecated. Fetch the 1.9.5 release archive, verified by its SHA-256, with FetchContent_MakeAvailable() instead. That needs CMake 3.14; Google Benchmark itself already needed 3.13. Its -Werror is switched off, so a newer compiler's new warnings cannot break the pinned release, and its install rules are no longer added.
