@@ -138,6 +138,21 @@ The library maps MessagePack types to JSON value types as follows:
Any MessagePack output created by `to_msgpack` can be successfully parsed by `from_msgpack`.
!!! warning "Object keys"
MessagePack allows map keys of any type, whereas JSON only allows strings as keys in object values. Like the
JSON-compatible [profile](https://github.com/msgpack/msgpack/blob/master/spec.md#profile) sketched in the
MessagePack specification, this library restricts map keys to `str` values. Maps with keys of any other type are
rejected with a [`parse_error.113`](../../home/exceptions.md#jsonexceptionparse_error113) exception (or, with
`allow_exceptions` set to `false`, a discarded value) naming the type of the key that was found, for instance:
```
[json.exception.parse_error.113] parse error at byte 2: syntax error while parsing MessagePack object key: only string keys are supported, but found nil; last byte: 0xC0
```
This applies to the [SAX interface](../parsing/sax_interface.md) as well, as the key is read before it is passed
on. Such input needs a general-purpose MessagePack library instead.
!!! warning "UTF-8 validation of string values"
The MessagePack specification requires `str` values (`fixstr`, `str 8`, `str 16`, `str 32`) to be valid UTF-8.
