Niels Lohmann 2188623289 Compare json_view with yyjson, simdjson, and Boost.JSON 
tests/benchmarks/json_view/ holds a comparison with other
libraries, answering the question users ask when they pick one.
It is not built by CMake and not run by CI.

- bench_view.cpp: parse, traverse, select and dump of twitter,
  citm_catalog, canada, jeopardy, a tweet and an RPC request,
  against json_view, yyjson, simdjson, Boost.JSON and json::parse,
  all agreeing and run interleaved.
- bench_corpus.cpp: parse, traverse and dump of any file list.
- bench_edit.cpp: parses, edits through each library's own API,
  and serializes; all outputs must describe the same value.
- compare.py: builds both programs with system or pinned,
  SHA-256-checked downloads, and writes results with the commit,
  CPU, OS, compiler and library versions.
- README.md and a workflow that runs on demand or via a PR label.

Fairness fixes folded in: each engine runs once untimed before
each timed round, so the next one no longer pays for the
previous one's cleanup; dump is also compared with source numbers
against yyjson's raw-number mode; a "simdjson DOM (fresh)" column
and a reused-document column for json_view were added;
compare.py's paths are absolute; downloads use a .part file and a
failed checksum removes the archive.

Niels Lohmann 4981016097 Split the value and pointer edit tests off unit-json_view_edit.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_edit.cpp has 35409 sections since the fast
dump instantiates more code for editable documents, so its test cases "views
and values", "deeply nested values", "pointers below a null value", and
"strings of other documents are checked" move into
unit-json_view_edit_values.cpp. The helper exception_of_call() that both
files use moves into json_view_test_helpers.hpp.

Niels Lohmann 15a865daf2 Fix out-of-bounds read when dumping a float token of an unchecked image 
A float node of an image loaded with image_check::bounds can hold a
token whose bytes are not digits, so its value need not have the digit
count recorded in the node. write_double_at() passed that count to
write_short_decimal(), which indexes its table of powers of ten by it:
an assertion failure in debug builds, an out-of-bounds read in release
builds. Use the counted overload only if the value has exactly that many
digits, otherwise count them.

Niels Lohmann 860a214322 Write json_view's dump() without a call or conversion per token 
The default dump() (no indentation, no ensure_ascii) gets its own
writer that makes the same walk and produces the same output:

- the write position stays in a local variable instead of a
  member, so the compiler keeps it in a register across stores
  through aliasing char pointers;
- strings and number tokens are copied with fixed-size 32-byte
  moves wherever enough source bytes remain, instead of one
  memcpy call per token;
- the innermost open container lives in local variables; a stack
  that starts as a local array of 32 entries holds the rest;
- unedited documents are walked through the node array in order,
  and integer tokens are read from the source directly.

On top of that, float tokens of at most 15 significant digits are
written straight from their digits via zmij::to_shortest() and
write_shortest(), without converting to a double and back: such
decimals are farther apart than a double's rounding interval, so
the token's digits are the double's shortest digits. Tokens of
16+ digits, or edited values, still go through decimal_to_float().
The view's own NEON write_decimal() is removed in favor of the
shared writer, and the dump output now grows in 64 KiB steps
instead of being resized to its estimate at once.

Niels Lohmann 84e36d5f6f Check each distinct string and float range once in the full image check 
The full check scanned the contents of every string node and every float token over its own range, so many nodes pointing to one large range made load() quadratic. The structural walk now only collects the ranges; after it, each kind is sorted and checked once per distinct range. Ranges of one kind that overlap without being identical are rejected, as save() never writes them (nodes that share a value share the whole range). The cost is linear in the size of the image plus sorting the ranges.

Niels Lohmann 176eeedd07 Add images of json_documents: save() and load() 
An image is a document stored so that loading it needs no
parsing: save() writes the node index, the text and the decoded
strings; the static load() reads an image written by save().

load() takes a pointer and size, a borrowed vector, or an owned
rvalue vector; the nodes are copied so they are aligned and can
be edited, while the text and decoded strings stay in the image.

image_check controls how much load() trusts the input: full
checks structure, bounds, strings and numbers, the parser's own
guarantees; bounds checks structure and bounds only; none skips
all checks, for images from a trusted source.

Layout is little-endian only ("NJVI" header, nodes, text, decoded
strings), following the idea of zero-copy formats such as
FlatBuffers and YaFF; the check follows FlatBuffers' Verifier.

New errors: parse_error.116 for a malformed image or a failed
check, type_error.320 for a discarded document or a big-endian
target.

A dedicated fuzzer and 6,000 seeded corruptions, checked under
ASan/UBSan, found and fixed two gaps: unchecked reserved header
fields, and unbounded null/boolean offsets that could make
dump() throw std::length_error.

Niels Lohmann 347de0a8d0 Assign the first member when set() meets duplicate keys again 
Lookups find the first member of a repeated key again, so set(object, key,
value) assigns that member (keeping the key where it is) and drops the
others, as documented before, and a view taken from object[key] shows the
new value. This undoes the code and documentation changes of 5cbb8e6d6.
Lookups in edited objects (navigation of editable documents) stop at the
first match, like those of parsed objects.

The tests that commit added expect the first member from lookups now. In the
seeded differential test, the documents with repeated keys repeat them after
the real members; the reference holds the first members, which the edits
address and the lookups are compared with, while materialize() is compared
with what parse() makes of the document's dump.

Niels Lohmann e2c2fe9364 Assign the member that lookups find when set() meets duplicate keys 
An editable document reads the last member of a repeated key (as the
read-only document does), but set(object, key, value) assigned the first
one: a view taken from object[key] before the call did not show the new
value. It now assigns the last member's value, keeps the key at the
position of its first occurrence (where materialize() puts it), and drops
the other members.

The seeded differential test now also edits documents whose objects
repeat keys and compares every lookup (operator[], at, find, value,
contains, count, and JSON pointers) with the parsed basic_json value.
A targeted test covers duplicates before and after edits that move the
object, in large objects with an index, in moved arrays, and in values
copied from other documents.

Replacing an array or object that spans several nodes by a scalar looks
up its parent from the root (find_parent), which is linear in the size
of the document: setting every element of a 20,000 element array took
more than half a second. The parent only has to switch to links once;
afterward the extent of the replaced value no longer matters. Nodes that
an entry of a moved sequence links to are now marked (node_flags::linked),
and assign() skips the lookup for them.

Niels Lohmann 07d8536bf1 Set a null value below a pointer as basic_json does 
set(json_pointer, value) turned a null parent into an object for every
last reference token, so "/a/0" and "/a/-" below {"a":null} made
{"a":{"0":1}}, where basic_json's operator[](json_pointer) makes an
array. A null parent now becomes an array for "-" and for digit tokens
(filled with nulls up to the index) and an object otherwise. An invalid
index is reported before the parent changes.

if it exceeded 4 GiB, so that an arena of more than 2 GiB could not grow

capacity is now clamped to that limit (text_capacity()), and an append
is rejected only if the bytes themselves do not fit.

An editable document only holds valid UTF-8, but copy_scalar() copied the
strings and keys of a view of another document unchecked. A document of
a weaker check (or a borrowed text that changed after parsing) could
therefore bring ill-formed UTF-8 into it. The copy is checked now, with
the error that dump() reports for the string; copies within the same

Niels Lohmann aa695d683b Do not leave a half-assigned container when set_moved() throws 
assign() rewrote the kind, length and extent of a slot before set_moved()
registered its new element sequence. set_moved() can throw
(std::bad_alloc from reserving the bookkeeping vectors) for a slot that
is not moved yet, which left a container without the moved flag that
showed its old children. The bookkeeping is now reserved first
(reserve_moved()), so that nothing after the first write to the slot can
throw. block_of() reserves before it marks anything for the same reason.

Niels Lohmann fd4a29e636 Add editable json_documents: set, push_back, insert, and erase 
basic_json_document gets a second template parameter, Editable
(false by default), plus the aliases json_editable_document,
json_editable_view, ordered_json_editable_document and
ordered_json_editable_view.

Editable documents can change values and structure without
rewriting the source text: set()/push_back() on values, keys,
array indices and JSON pointers; insert() before an array
element; erase() of an object key, array index or JSON pointer.

New values and element sequences go into edit storage that the
document owns and never moves, so views keep referring to their
value across edits and a parsed node never moves. Read-only
documents walk the plain node array and are unaffected.

Strings are checked for UTF-8 on entry, so dump() of an editable
document never throws type_error.316. Binary values cannot be
stored (type_error.319).

A seeded differential test applies random edits to an editable
document and to the equivalent ordered_json and compares both
after every step.

Niels Lohmann 59694a5e3e Scan json_view strings with SIMD and index large objects 
Speed up json_view's parser with SIMD scanning and a hash table
for large objects.

Long runs of string bytes are scanned 16 bytes at a time with NEON
(AArch64, GCC and Clang) and SSE2 (x86-64), both baseline
instruction sets. Keys keep 16 table checks before the vector
loop, because their lengths repeat from record to record; string
values get 8, because their lengths vary more. Non-ASCII text is
validated 16 bytes at a time with simdjson's "lookup4" check
(Keiser and Lemire, 2021), with NEON on AArch64 and, on x86-64,
with SSSE3. SSSE3 is not part of baseline x86-64, so the check is
compiled for SSSE3 with a function attribute and used only where
CPUID reports it, which all x86-64 CPUs since about 2011 do; the
answer is cached in a statically initialized atomic, so there is
no guard of a local static and no global constructor. The same
input is accepted either way. JSON_VIEW_NO_SIMD selects the
portable code.

On x86-64, string runs are now checked vector-first: one SSE2
compare from the first byte finds the end of most keys and short
values, instead of a branch per byte for the first 8-16 bytes.
AArch64 keeps the byte-wise steps, where a NEON mask costs more and
the branches predict well. Entering an object or array no longer
stalls: open() stores the parent's frame field by field instead of
building it on the stack and reading it back with wider loads,
which waited for the narrower stores to retire.

Objects with 128 members or more get an open-addressing hash table
built when the object closes, so operator[], at(), find(),
contains(), count(), value(), and JSON pointers take constant time
on average in such objects; of duplicate keys, the first is kept,
as for the linear search. The idea comes from Boost.JSON.

Niels Lohmann 05fea2e972 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.

Niels Lohmann e8907a55dc 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.

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.

Niels Lohmann f9b45bc087 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

Niels Lohmann 5bc36a6947 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.

Niels Lohmann f6895fb84e Write doubles with the shortest digits (Żmij), digits in registers 
Write doubles with the conversion of Zmij by Victor Zverovich (MIT),
ported to C++11 (detail/conversions/zmij.hpp). It finds the
shortest decimal that reads back as the same double, and the
closest one if there are several. Grisu2, used until now, is fast
but not always shortest: it sometimes writes a 17th digit where 16
suffice, or a last digit that is not the closest. The layout is
unchanged (1.5, 100.0, 1e+100, -0.0); float keeps Grisu2.

Digits are converted eight at a time with the BCD conversion of
Xiang JunBo, as in Zmij, and written with one byte swap per eight
digits and fixed-size moves instead of per-digit loops. Leading and
trailing zeros are counted from those bytes. to_chars() uses a
local buffer when the caller's is shorter than the 41 bytes this
may write. The powers of ten come from the number-parsing table,
adjusted where it holds values rounded up, and extended with Zmij's
compressed tables beyond 10^308.

write_shortest() converts its 16 digits in one vector register
(SSE2 on x86-64, NEON on 64-bit Arm, both baseline) and inserts the
decimal point inside the register, avoiding a store-forwarding
stall that cost about 25% of the time to write a double. dump()
writes floats and integers straight into the serializer's write
buffer instead of copying them from a member buffer, and small
integers eight digits at a time. read_eight_bytes() and
parse_eight_digits() are marked always-inline, which GCC had been
calling out of line in the number-parsing loops.

Of one million random doubles, about 0.14% are now written with
different digits, always to a value that still reads back as the
same double.

Niels Lohmann 2434cb6e72 Speed up the lexer: own float parser, string scan, and \u table 
Give the library its own correctly rounded float converter for
binary32 and binary64 (IEEE 754), and speed up the lexer's string
and escape scanning.

The converter splits a number token into sign, significand, and
decimal exponent, then tries Clinger's fast path, then a templated
Eisel-Lemire step, and falls back to an exact big-integer digit
comparison for tokens with more than 19 significant digits whose two
candidate values round differently. This replaces std::from_chars
and strtod/strtof for both formats, so parsed values no longer
depend on the C/C++ library or the current locale. The strtold
fallback kept for other long double formats (x87, binary128) now
also copies a multi-byte decimal point correctly, fixing #5660.
eisel_lemire() and decimal_to_float() are always inlined so callers
keep the whole conversion in their hot loop.

The string-scanning kernels in string_scan.hpp find a stop byte with
the trailing-zero count of the SWAR mask instead of a byte loop, and
scalar_string_bulk_run() validates a run of multi-byte UTF-8
sequences one after another instead of re-searching after each one.

get_codepoint() decodes a contiguous \uXXXX escape with one table
lookup per byte instead of four range-checked get() calls; the
streaming path and all error positions are unchanged.

Adds 508 generated hard float-parsing cases with expected binary32
and binary64 bits, and kernel-comparison tests for the string scans
and the escape table against byte-by-byte references.

## Debugging
### `nlohmann_json.natvis`
The [Natvis](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/debugger/create-custom-views-of-native-objects) file that
gives `json` values a friendly view in the Visual Studio debugger. The file is generated by
`tools/generate_natvis/generate_natvis.py` from the template `tools/generate_natvis/nlohmann_json.natvis.j2` and the ABI
tags and version in `include/nlohmann/detail/abi_macros.hpp`; change the script or the template rather than editing
the file by hand. The file can be updated by calling
```shell
make natvis
```
The "Check amalgamation" workflow fails if the file is out of date.
The file covers the namespace variants with up to two ABI tags. A Natvis file for other configurations can be
generated with the `--abi-tags` or `--all` options, for example
`make natvis NATVIS_ARGS="--abi-tags _diag,_dp,_vns --output my_nlohmann_json.natvis"`; see
[`tools/generate_natvis`](tools/generate_natvis/README.md). With MSVC, CMake adds the file to the `nlohmann_json`
target and installs it.

2. Create an object of your SAX interface class, e.g. `my_sax`.
3. Call `bool json::sax_parse(input, &my_sax)`; where the first parameter can be any input like a string or an input stream and the second parameter is a pointer to your SAX interface.
Note the `sax_parse` function only returns a `bool` indicating whether the input was parsed without errors and no SAX event returned `false`.

# <small>nlohmann::basic_json::</small>merge_diff
```cpp
static basic_json merge_diff(const basic_json& source,
const basic_json& target);
```
Creates a [JSON Merge Patch](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7396) so that value `source` can be changed into the value
`target` by calling the [`merge_patch`](merge_patch.md) function. The patch contains only what differs: changed and
added members with their new values, and removed members with the value `#!json null`. Nested objects are compared
member by member; any other value that differs, including an array, is replaced as a whole.
For two JSON values `source` and `target`, where `target` contains no object member whose value is `#!json null`, the
following code always yields `#!cpp true` (for [`ordered_json`](../ordered_json.md), see the notes below):
```cpp
basic_json patched = source;
patched.merge_patch(merge_diff(source, target));
patched == target;
```
## Parameters
`source` (in)
: JSON value to compare from
`target` (in)
: JSON value to compare against
## Return value
a JSON Merge Patch to convert the `source` to `target`
## Exception safety
Strong guarantee: `source` and `target` are never modified.
## Complexity
Linear in the total number of values (including nested ones) in `source` and `target`, times the cost of a key-based
object operation (looking up a key, or adding one to the patch): logarithmic for [`json`](../json.md), and linear for
[`ordered_json`](../ordered_json.md) (see [`ordered_map` complexity](../ordered_map.md#complexity)). For
`ordered_json`, diffing two objects with `n` and `m` members therefore takes O((n+m)²).
## Notes
- A merge patch uses `#!json null` to remove a member, so it cannot set a member to `#!json null`. As in RFC 7396, a
`#!json null` member of `target` is treated as absent: the patch removes the member from `source` instead of setting
it to `#!json null`. A member that is `#!json null` in both `source` and `target` is unchanged and left out of the
patch, so `source` keeps it.
- A merge patch cannot reorder object members, and [`merge_patch`](merge_patch.md) appends added members at the end.
For [`ordered_json`](../ordered_json.md), the patched value therefore has the same members as `target`, but not
necessarily in the same order, and may compare unequal to it. The patch lists changed and removed members in the
order of `source`, followed by added members in the order of `target`.
## Examples
??? example
The following code shows how a JSON Merge Patch is created as a diff for two JSON values.
```cpp
--8<-- "examples/merge_diff.cpp"
```
Output:
```json
--8<-- "examples/merge_diff.output"

- Two JSON values compare with a result of `std::partial_ordering::unordered` if either value is discarded.
- If both JSON values are of the same type, the result is produced by 3-way comparing their stored values using
their respective `operator<=>`.
- Integer and floating-point numbers are 3-way compared by their exact values, without converting the integer to
floating-point. For instance, `9007199254740993` compares greater than `9007199254740992.0`.
- Integer and floating-point numbers are converted to their common type and then 3-way compared using their

For instance, comparing an integer and a floating-point value will 3-way compare the first value converted to

!!! tip "Parsing into a document instead of a value"
[`basic_json_document::parse`](../basic_json_document/parse.md) accepts the same inputs and the same options, but
keeps the result as a flat index of the parsed values instead of a tree of `basic_json` values. It is faster and uses
less memory when only parts of the document are read, and it also accepts a pointer to a null-terminated wide string,
which `parse()` does not. See [Zero-copy JSON views](../../features/json_view.md).
!!! tip "Performance"
Contiguous inputs (strings, string views, vectors, arrays, pointer ranges) are the fastest to parse. A
`#!cpp std::istream` comes close: the parser scans the characters its stream buffer holds in bulk, without reading
ahead, so the stream is left exactly where it would be after reading one character at a time. A `#!cpp FILE*` is
read one character at a time, but the file is locked only once, so other threads that use the same `FILE` object
wait until parsing is done. See [input sources and performance](../../features/parsing/index.md#input-sources-and-performance),
[`JSON_DISABLE_STREAM_BULK_SCAN`](../macros/json_disable_stream_bulk_scan.md), and

The encoding is deduced from the character type of the input; `std::u16string` and `std::u32string` are interpreted
as UTF-16 and UTF-32, and `std::wstring` uses the platform's `wchar_t` width. String literals like `u"..."`,

below): not every input type of `BasicJsonType::parse()` is supported.
## Template parameters
`InputType`
: A compatible input, for instance:
: A byte-oriented input, one of:
- a `#!cpp std::string`, a `#!cpp std::string_view` (C++17), or a C-style array of single-byte characters
- a `#!cpp std::string`, `#!cpp std::string_view`, or a C-style array of single-byte characters
- a pointer to a null-terminated string of single-byte characters (`#!cpp char`, `#!cpp signed char`,
`#!cpp unsigned char`, `#!cpp std::uint8_t`)
- a container for which `#!cpp obj.data()` and `#!cpp obj.size()` give contiguous single-byte access, e.g.
`#!cpp std::vector<char>` or `#!cpp std::vector<std::uint8_t>`
- an `#!cpp std::istream` object
- a `#!cpp FILE*` pointer
- wide characters (`#!cpp wchar_t`, `#!cpp char16_t`, `#!cpp char32_t`), which are converted to UTF-8: a wide
string object (`#!cpp std::wstring`, `#!cpp std::u16string`, `#!cpp std::u32string`), an array (e.g. a wide
string literal), or a pointer to a null-terminated wide string
- a wide string object (`#!cpp std::wstring`, `#!cpp std::u16string`, `#!cpp std::u32string`), which is converted
to UTF-8
Other inputs are not supported: a `#!cpp FILE*`, and pointers to or arrays of wide characters (`#!cpp wchar_t`,
`#!cpp char16_t`, `#!cpp char32_t`) are rejected at compile time by a `#!cpp static_assert`. (Use
[`BasicJsonType::parse()`](../basic_json/parse.md) for these.)
`IteratorType`
: an input iterator type, for instance a pair of pointers such as `ptr` and `ptr + len`, or a pair of
`#!cpp std::string::iterator`; the iterators of single-byte characters are borrowed or read like the byte inputs
above, those of wide characters are converted to UTF-8

`operator[]` and [Duplicate keys](../../features/json_view.md#duplicate-keys) for the reasons and for how to get

This method always returns `#!cpp 0` when the value is not an object -- including a [discarded](is_discarded.md)
view.
If the source text repeats a key, `count()` returns more than `#!cpp 1` for it, even though the
[materialized](materialize.md) value (like the result of `parse()`) would have only one member with that key. Hence
`#!cpp count(key) > 1` detects duplicate keys. This is unlike the lookup functions
([`operator[]`](operator[].md), [`at`](at.md), [`find`](find.md), [`contains`](contains.md)), which resolve to the
*first* member; see the [Notes on duplicate keys](operator[].md#notes) of `operator[]`.
Unlike [`BasicJsonType::count()`](../basic_json/count.md), whose return value can in principle exceed `#!cpp 1` for
an `ObjectType` that allows multiple entries per key, `count()` here never does: it is exactly
[`contains()`](contains.md) as `#!cpp 0`/`#!cpp 1`. This holds even if the source text has a duplicate key -- see the
