# JSON_DISABLE_TUPLE_REFERENCE_CONVERSION
```cpp
#define JSON_DISABLE_TUPLE_REFERENCE_CONVERSION /* value */
```
When defined to `1`, a `basic_json` value can no longer be constructed from a one-element `std::tuple` whose element is
a reference to that `basic_json` type, such as `std::tuple<json&>`, `std::tuple<const json&>`, or `std::tuple<json&&>`.
These are the tuples created by `std::forward_as_tuple(j)`.
## Default definition
The default value is `0` (disabled — existing behavior is preserved).
```cpp
#define JSON_DISABLE_TUPLE_REFERENCE_CONVERSION 0
```
## Notes
!!! note "Background"
By default, `basic_json` can be constructed from any `std::tuple` whose elements can be converted to JSON; the result
is an array. This includes `std::tuple<json&>`, which becomes a one-element array.
`std::tuple` only converts another tuple element by element if its element type cannot be constructed from the whole
source tuple. Because `json` *can* be constructed from `std::tuple<json&>`, `std::tuple` instead converts the whole
tuple into a single `json` value. This has two surprising effects:
```cpp
json j = true;
// rejected by some standard libraries (e.g., libc++); with others, the
// reference binds to a temporary that is destroyed right away
std::tuple<const json&> t1(std::forward_as_tuple(j));
// compiles, but std::get<0>(t2) is [true], not true
std::tuple<json> t2(std::forward_as_tuple(j));
```
Enabling this macro removes the conversion, so both tuples are converted element by element: `std::get<0>(t1)`
refers to `j`, and `std::get<0>(t2)` is a copy of `j` (see [#2226](https://github.com/nlohmann/json/issues/2226)).
!!! warning "Opt-in only"
This macro must be defined **before** including `<nlohmann/json.hpp>`. Defining it after the include has no effect.
!!! note "Affected conversions"
Only one-element tuples holding a reference to the **same** `basic_json` type are affected. Constructing a JSON value
from them no longer compiles:
```cpp
json j = true;
json a = std::forward_as_tuple(j); // error with the macro enabled
json b = json::array({j}); // use this instead: [true]
```
Tuples holding a JSON value (`std::make_tuple(j)`), tuples with more than one element, and tuples holding references
to other types (including other `basic_json` specializations) are converted to arrays as before.
!!! hint "CMake option"
This behavior can also be controlled with the CMake option
[`JSON_DisableTupleReferenceConversion`](../../integration/cmake.md#json_disabletuplereferenceconversion)
(`OFF` by default) which defines `JSON_DISABLE_TUPLE_REFERENCE_CONVERSION` accordingly.
## Examples
??? example "Default behavior (macro not defined)"
```cpp
#include <nlohmann/json.hpp>
using json = nlohmann::json;
int main()
{
json j = true;
std::tuple<json> t(std::forward_as_tuple(j));
// std::get<0>(t) is [true] -- the whole tuple was converted
}
```
??? example "Conversion disabled (macro defined to 1)"
```cpp
#define JSON_DISABLE_TUPLE_REFERENCE_CONVERSION 1
#include <nlohmann/json.hpp>
using json = nlohmann::json;
int main()
{
json j = true;
std::tuple<json> t(std::forward_as_tuple(j));
// std::get<0>(t) is true -- a copy of j
std::tuple<const json&> r(std::forward_as_tuple(j));
// std::get<0>(r) refers to j
}
```
