bench_edit.cpp joins the comparison: parse, apply the same logical edits
with each library's own API (a handful at fixed places, or one in every
record), and serialize; all outputs must describe the same value.

- erase(object, key): remove all members with the key; returns their

- erase(array, index): remove an element
- erase(json_pointer): remove the member or element a pointer names
The errors are those of basic_json (type_error.307/309,
out_of_range.401/403/405). A view of an erased value keeps its last value,
and views of other values keep referring to them when elements move.

across inserts and erasures, duplicate keys, and large objects.

basic_json_document<BasicJsonType, true> (json_editable_document,
ordered_json_editable_document) can be edited:
- set(view, value): replace a value
- set(object, key, value): assign a member, or add it (a null becomes an
object); with duplicate keys, the first is assigned and the others go
- set(array, index, value): assign an element
- set(json_pointer, value): the member, element, or ("-", or the size of
the array) the end of an array a pointer names
- push_back(array, value): append (a null becomes an array)
Values are views (of any document, copied), BasicJsonType values, and
everything BasicJsonType can be constructed from. The source text is never
written, and the parsed index never moves: new values and element
sequences go to storage owned by the document (edit_storage.hpp), so views
stay valid, and a view keeps referring to its value (after an assignment,
it sees the new one). Read-only documents are unchanged; editing one does
not compile.
Errors are those of basic_json where the operation corresponds
(type_error.305/308, out_of_range.401/403/405, parse_error.106/109); a view
of another document is invalid_iterator.202. Strings are checked for UTF-8
when they enter the document, with the type_error.316 that
basic_json::dump() throws for the same string, so that a document only
holds valid UTF-8. Binary values cannot be stored (the new
type_error.319), and edits of 4 GiB or more end with out_of_range.416.
Views of editable and read-only documents compare with each other.
Tests (unit-json_view_edit.cpp): random assignments, member and element
changes, copies within and between documents, and pushes, applied to an
ordered_json_editable_document and to the ordered_json value; after every
edit both must serialize (also indented and with ensure_ascii),
materialize, compare, and read back the same. Further: the errors, strings
that stay valid while the edit arena grows, numbers (NaN, infinities,
extremes; number_format::source), nulls that become containers, the root
replaced, duplicate keys, values of other documents, large objects, and
documents reused with read().

Lookups in objects are linear, as for ordered_json. Objects with 128
members or more now get a hash table after parsing (open addressing; the
first of duplicate keys is kept, as for the linear search), so that
operator[], at(), find(), contains(), count(), value(), and JSON pointers
take constant time on average in them; the idea of switching to a hash
table for large objects is Boost.JSON's. The parser notes such objects when
it closes them (out of line, so that the parse loop only has a call for
it), and the object node keeps the number of its table.
Looking up each key of an object with 10,000 members: 59.8 ms -> 0.16 ms.

Long runs of string bytes are scanned 16 at a time with NEON (AArch64, with
GCC and Clang) and SSE2 (x86-64): both belong to the baseline instruction
sets. A signed compare with 0x20 finds control characters and non-ASCII
bytes at once. Keys keep 16 table checks before the vector loop (their
lengths repeat from record to record, so the branches predict well);
string values have 8, as their lengths vary more.
Non-ASCII text is validated 16 bytes at a time with the "lookup4" check of
simdjson (J. Keiser and D. Lemire, "Validating UTF-8 In Less Than One
Instruction Per Byte", 2021): with NEON, and on x86-64 with SSSE3 if
JSON_VIEW_USE_SSSE3 is defined (SSSE3 is not part of x86-64, and the code

the vector blocks of keys and values, cut short, and long runs of text
with a damaged byte, against json::accept and json::parse. CMake builds
the parser tests again with JSON_VIEW_NO_SIMD, and on x86-64 with

A workflow runs compare.py with pinned downloads on GitHub-hosted
Ubuntu runners and shows the results as the job summary and as an
artifact: started by hand (workflow_dispatch: x86-64 or AArch64, GCC or

Shared runners are noisy, so the numbers show where json_view stands on

The parser records where the integer digits, the fraction digits, and the
exponent of a float token are. For floats and doubles with at most 19
digits, the value is now read from that layout: the digits eight at a time,
without scanning the token, and rounded by the library's conversion core
(detail::decimal_to_float(): Clinger's fast path where both operands are
exact, else the Eisel-Lemire algorithm, which needs no fallback for up to 19
digits). It rounds correctly, so the values are those of parse(); other
tokens and types keep the library's conversion of the whole token.
get<double>(), materialize(), dump(), and comparisons use it. Traversing

basic_json_view gains operator== and operator!= with other views and with
basic_json values. Two views are equal if the values parse() would
produce for them are equal by basic_json's operator==: numbers compare by
value across their types, and objects by their members, with duplicate
keys resolved as parse() resolves them (the last value, at the position of
the first key). Objects are compared in member order if the object type
keeps an order (ordered_json), by key otherwise, as basic_json does.
Discarded views compare as discarded basic_json values do, which follows
JSON_USE_LEGACY_DISCARDED_VALUE_COMPARISON. Nothing is materialized except
single numbers, and the walk is iterative.
Tests compare the results for pairs of 1,200 generated documents (also
written differently: sorted keys, canonical numbers) with those of
basic_json, for json and ordered_json, plus numbers, duplicate keys,
member order, discarded values, and 100,000 levels of nesting.

basic_json_view::dump(indent, indent_char, ensure_ascii, number_format)
writes the text of a value as 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 and with the
library's scanning kernels, floats with the library's conversion, and
integers copied from the source, where they are canonical except "-0".
With number_format::source, numbers are copied as they appear in the
source ("1.50", "1E2", "-0", all digits of long integers). operator<<
takes the indentation from the stream width, as for basic_json.
The writer (detail/view/serializer.hpp) writes through a raw pointer into
a string sized from the source extent of the value, and walks the index
iteratively, so the nesting depth is limited by memory only.
Tests compare the output of 2,000 generated documents with
ordered_json::dump() for several indentations and ensure_ascii, strings
with every kind of escape, numbers (5,000 random doubles, float as
number_float_t), duplicate keys, 100,000 levels of nesting, and streams.

basic_json_view gains get<T>(), get_to(), value() with keys and JSON
pointers, and operator[], at(), and contains() with JSON pointers, plus
two functions basic_json has no counterpart for:
- get_string(): the string without a copy (a string_view into the source,
or into the decoded strings for strings with escapes)
- number_token(): the text of a number as it appears in the source
get<T>() converts arithmetic types, strings (also string_view_t),
std::nullptr_t, std::vector, maps with string keys, and views directly;
floats are converted from the digit layout recorded by the parser with the
library's conversion chain, so the values are bit-identical to parse().
Other types, including user types with from_json(), go through
materialize().
The exceptions are those of basic_json, message included. Where const
basic_json has undefined behavior (a missing key or an index out of range
with operator[] and a JSON pointer), the result is a discarded view;
value() returns the default wherever basic_json catches out_of_range, and
contains() never throws. Array indices of JSON pointers follow
json_pointer's rules (parse_error.106/109, out_of_range.404/410).
Tests compare the conversions of 2,000 generated documents, 20,000 float
tokens (double and float, bit for bit), and every JSON pointer of 1,000

basic_json_view gains the read-only access functions of basic_json:
operator[] and at() with keys and indices, front(), back(), find(),
contains(), count(), begin()/end(), items() (with structured bindings from
C++17 on), and type_name(). They throw the exceptions (ids and messages)
that the const functions of basic_json throw; where basic_json has
undefined behavior (operator[] with a missing key or an index out of
range, front()/back() of an empty container), the view returns a
discarded view or throws invalid_iterator.214.
Objects are iterated in document order, and all members are visited. With
duplicate keys, lookups find the first member, so that a lookup can stop
at the first match; parse() keeps the last value. Keys of up to 16 bytes
are compared with two overlapping loads instead of memcmp, and most keys
are rejected by their length alone, from the index.
The iterators and items live in detail/view/iterator.hpp, the lookups in
detail/view/lookup.hpp. Tests compare every element and member of 2,000
generated documents with ordered_json, keys of every length around the
load sizes, the exceptions against const basic_json, and the iterators.

The builder parses JSON text in one pass into the node index: strings and
numbers stay in the source (escaped strings are decoded into an arena),
integers are converted while their digits are in cache, and floats keep
their digit layout for a later conversion. It accepts exactly what
json::parse accepts, for every combination of comments and trailing commas,
with and without a terminating NUL, and with JSON_STRICT_NUL_HANDLING.
Parse state lives in a local cursor whose address never escapes, so that it
stays in registers; out-of-line helpers (errors, regrowth, escapes,
comments) are members of the builder and get the positions they need. The
value dispatch is expanded once for array elements and once for member
values. Literals are compared with memcmp and words read in a fixed byte
order, so nothing depends on the platform's byte order. Error messages come
with the public classes.
Tests (unit-json_view_builder.cpp): accept/reject and values against
json::parse for handwritten, generated, and damaged documents under all
option combinations, from std::string and from exact-size buffers (no read
past the input under AddressSanitizer), deep nesting up to 100,000 levels,

get_codepoint() read the four hex digits of a \u escape with four calls
to get(), each classified by a chain of range comparisons. For contiguous
input, get_codepoint_bulk() now decodes them with one lookup per byte
(hex_codepoint() in string_scan.hpp, after yyjson's read_hex_u16): a
256-entry table maps a byte to its value, or 0xFF for anything else, and
an invalid digit shows in the OR of the four values. It then skips the
four bytes and updates the position counters as four get() calls would.
If a digit is invalid or fewer than four bytes are left, it changes
nothing and the existing loop runs, so errors are reported with the same
message and position as before.

twitter.json (every non-ASCII character as \u) -13.6%, all other files

find_string_special() and find_ascii_copyable_run() test eight bytes at a

lowest flagged byte of the SWAR tests is always a true hit (the borrows of

trailing-zero count of the mask; words are read in little-endian order on
every platform, so this does not depend on the byte order.
scalar_string_bulk_run() validates a run of multi-byte UTF-8 sequences one

float, double, and long double where it is IEEE-754 binary64 (MSVC, Apple
arm64) are now converted by the library itself, correctly rounded and
independent of the locale and of the C and C++ libraries:
- The token is split into sign, significand w (at most 19 digits), and
decimal exponent q, using the positions of the decimal point and the
exponent that the scanners already recorded, so no character is
classified again.
- Clinger's fast path where w and 10^|q| are exact.
- Eisel-Lemire otherwise, now templated for binary32 and binary64.
- For tokens with more than 19 digits whose w and w + 1 round differently,
an exact big-integer comparison with the midpoint between the two
candidates (the digit comparison of fast_float, simplified).
This replaces the separate token walks of Clinger's fast path and of
Eisel-Lemire, the significant-digit gate that avoided the former, and, for
float and double, std::from_chars and the locale-aware strtod. std::from_chars
and strtold remain only for other long double formats (x87, binary128,
double-double) and for types that are not IEEE-754. Values are bit-identical
to before wherever the previous conversion was correctly rounded; tokens
converted in a locale with a multi-byte decimal point are now also exact.
Overflow still gives out_of_range.406, underflow a signed zero.
convert_float() is the entry point for other parsers of JSON text: it
converts like the lexer, without allocation for binary32/binary64.
Tests: exact-bit tests for double and float (ties, subnormal and overflow
boundaries, huge exponents, more digits than any midpoint), Eisel-Lemire for
binary32, the round trips of 200,000 doubles and 100,000 floats without
declines, 508 generated hard cases with the expected bits of both formats
(float_hard_cases.hpp) through the converter and both scanners, and
JSON-level overflow/underflow checks for double and float. The locale tests
now check the values in a locale with a multi-byte decimal point.
Docs: the statements that parsing uses strtod/strtof/strtold; the fast_float
credit now names the digit comparison.

GCC (-Werror=unused-result) rejected CHECK_THROWS_WITH_AS(json::parse(...))
because parse() is [[nodiscard]]; assign the result to a dummy json as the
other tests do. clang-tidy flagged longer.find('.') == npos with
abseil-string-find-str-contains; store the position in a variable first.

Float tokens that Clinger's fast path cannot convert (e.g. the 17-digit
coordinates of canada.json) went to strtod unless std::from_chars was
available. It is not used in C++11/14, and not with libc++, which does not
define __cpp_lib_to_chars. The Eisel-Lemire algorithm (after fast_float's
compute_float) now converts them with integer arithmetic, correctly rounded
for any token with at most 19 significant digits. Longer tokens are
truncated; the result is used if w and w + 1 round alike, else strtod
decides as before. Overflow still yields infinity (out_of_range.406).
The table of powers of five (fast_float's) lives in pow5_table.hpp; a unit
test recomputes every entry with big-integer arithmetic. Further tests:
known values generated with Python (whose float() is correctly rounded),
200,000 round trips through to_chars, and the 128-bit multiplication and
leading-zero count against big-integer references (both with and without a
128-bit type). Checked against strtod on 6.5 million tokens, among them
60,000 exact halfway cases: no difference.
json::parse on canada.json: -8.6% (C++11), -7.6% (C++17, Apple clang);
other files unchanged. Compile time of a TU including json.hpp: +0.7%.

#5597 was merged before all of its CI jobs had run, and two of them fail
on develop now, and so on every pull request:
- ci_clang_tidy: cert-err33-c for the two std::setlocale(LC_NUMERIC, "C")
calls whose result was discarded. Check the result, like the other
resets in the file.
- ci_test_standards_gcc (20) with GCC 16: -Wnoexcept for the two parser
callbacks, which cannot throw but were not declared noexcept.

* Look up the locale decimal point at conversion time, not lexer construction
The lexer read localeconv()->decimal_point once in its constructor and wrote
that character into token_buffer in place of '.'. The strtod fallback then
used the locale current at conversion time, so an LC_NUMERIC change in
between (parser callback, SAX handler, another thread) truncated the value
in release builds and fired the endptr assertion in debug builds.
token_buffer now always holds '.'. Only the strtof/strtod/strtold fallback
depends on the locale: it looks up the decimal point right before the call,
restores '.' afterwards, and repeats the conversion if the locale changed in
between. As a side effect, std::from_chars and Clinger's fast path now also
apply under locales whose decimal point is not '.'.

* Stop the strtod retry loop when the decimal point is unchanged
convert_float_locale_aware() repeated the conversion until strtod
consumed the whole token, assuming an early stop can only mean a locale
change. Under a locale whose decimal point is not a single character
(e.g. the two-byte U+066B of ar_EG.UTF-8, ar_SA.UTF-8, or fa_IR.UTF-8,
all available on macOS), the in-place substitution can never succeed,
so parsing any float that reaches the strtod fallback (for example
3.14159265358979323846 at C++11) hung forever. Before this branch, the
same input was truncated.
Retry only if the decimal point changed since the previous attempt;
otherwise keep the value strtod parsed so far, as before. Add a test
that parses such numbers under a multi-byte decimal point locale; it
hangs without this change.

* Fix -Weffc++ errors in the #5198 locale test
GCC's -Weffc++ (an error in ci_test_gcc and ci_test_standards_gcc)
rejected LocaleSwitchingSax: it has a pointer data member but does not
declare its copy operations, and its vectors are not initialized in the
member initializer list. Store the locale name as a std::string and give
the vectors brace initializers, like SaxEventLogger in
unit-deserialization.cpp.

* Name the key type when rejecting non-string CBOR/MessagePack map keys
CBOR and MessagePack allow map keys of any type, but JSON object keys
are always strings, so such maps are rejected. The error so far was the
one for a malformed string (e.g. "expected length specification
(0xA0-0xBF, 0xD9-0xDB); last byte: 0xC0" for a nil key), which does not
tell the user what went wrong. Report the type of the key instead:
syntax error while parsing MessagePack object key: only string keys
are supported, but found nil; last byte: 0xC0
The exception id (parse_error.113) and type are unchanged. Malformed
string keys and a missing key keep their previous messages. Document
the restriction on the CBOR and MessagePack pages.

* Point the MessagePack key note to the spec's profile section
The note linked to "Serialization: type to format conversion", which says nothing about key types. Restricting map keys to strings is only mentioned in the "Profile" section (under "Future discussion") as an example of a JSON-compatible profile, so link there and describe it as such instead of as a permission.

The "Size above uint32" tests for arrays and objects fake a container
size of 2^32 and expect to_msgpack() to throw out_of_range.412. But
to_msgpack(j) first reserves binary_reserve_hint(j) bytes, which is
size + 1 for arrays and 2 * size + 1 for objects, i.e. 4 or 8 GiB.
Linux and macOS overcommit, so the reservation succeeds; on Windows it
throws std::bad_alloc before the size check is reached (seen with
msvc-vs2026 Debug x64 on the object test).
Write into a caller-owned vector instead, so nothing is reserved.

The tests added by #5515 fail two ways on develop:
- clang-tidy reports the size() overrides of huge_string and huge_binary
(readability-convert-member-functions-to-static) and the non-const
test value (misc-const-correctness); mark them like the #5584 types
- clang with libstdc++ 10 cannot compile the file for C++17: the
std::filesystem::path conversion considered for huge_string, a class
derived from std::string, is ambiguous. Guard it with
JSON_TEST_BEYOND_UINT32_STRING, which #5584 introduced for the same
reason, and define that macro before both test blocks.
