get_cbor_negative_integer(), which takes neither, so Doxygen attached it
there and parse_cbor_internal() was left undocumented.

The diagnostic position of a string value was derived by subtracting the
parsed value's length from the end position. Escape sequences make the
source token longer than the value it parses to, so the reported start
position landed inside the string, one byte off per escape sequence:
input: {"a":"\n\n\n\n\n\n"}
start_pos() == 11, so the reported range covered n\n\n\n"
instead of the documented "\n\n\n\n\n\n"
This contradicts the documented behavior of start_pos(), which is the
position of the opening quote, and it also corrupted the "(bytes N-M)"
part of JSON_DIAGNOSTICS exception messages. Strings with multi-byte
UTF-8 but no escapes were unaffected, which is why this went unnoticed.
Record the offset of the token in the lexer when it starts scanning and
use that, instead of reconstructing it from the parsed value. Booleans,
null and numbers already reported correct positions and are unchanged.
The new lexer member and accessor are compiled only when
JSON_DIAGNOSTIC_POSITIONS is enabled, which is already part of the ABI
tag, so the default build is unaffected.

The comment asked whether the no-op marker 'N' may be ignored when a
string is read. It may not: at that point the next byte must be a string
length type specification, and 'N' is not one. No-ops at positions where
a value may start are already consumed by the callers through
get_ignore_noop(), so nothing is lost by not skipping them here.
Replace the TODO with a comment stating that, and add regression tests
pinning both directions: a no-op is accepted at top level (also
repeated), before and after an array element, and before an object key,
between key and value, and before the closing brace of an object of
unknown size; it is rejected where a length type specification is
expected, i.e. after the 'S' marker of a string value and as the key
length of an object of known size.

* Do not write BJData ndarrays whose size overflows std::size_t
write_bjdata_ndarray() multiplied the _ArraySize_ dimensions into a
std::size_t without checking for overflow. A product that wraps around
to a value that happens to match the size of _ArrayData_ passed the
length check, and the writer emitted an ndarray header announcing an
element count that cannot be represented:
{"_ArrayType_":"uint8","_ArraySize_":[9223372036854775808,2],"_ArrayData_":[]}
was encoded as 5b 24 55 23 5b 4d 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 80 69 02 5d, an
ndarray of 2^64 elements followed by no data. Reading that back throws
out_of_range.408 ("excessive ndarray size caused overflow"), so to_bjdata
produced output that from_bjdata rejects. This is reachable by parsing
untrusted JSON and re-encoding it as BJData.
Mirror the overflow check the binary reader already performs, and also
reject a single dimension that does not fit into std::size_t, which the
previous cast silently truncated where std::size_t is narrower than 64
bits. Such objects now fall back to a plain object encoding, which is
what the surrounding type and length validation already does for
annotations it cannot represent, and they round-trip unchanged.

* Document when to_bjdata converts a JData annotation to an ND-array
The BJData page described the 1-D vector case as the only situation in
which an object carrying _ArrayType_/_ArraySize_/_ArrayData_ is not
written as a compact ND-array. The writer has always had several other
fallbacks -- an unknown _ArrayType_, a dimension that is not a
non-negative integer, an _ArrayData_ whose length does not match the
product of the dimensions, and elements that are not numbers of the
annotated kind -- all of which cause the value to be serialized as a
regular JSON object instead.
Spell out the conditions, including the size-overflow check added in the
preceding commit, so the documented behavior matches the implementation.

Linking test-regression2_cpp20 intermittently fails with

The failure moves between matrix entries from run to run, and the same

debug sections rather than any one Clang version.
The jobs only build and run the tests, so override CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_DEBUG

Conversions whose element count is fixed by the destination C++ type --
`std::pair`, `std::tuple`, `std::array<T, N>`, C arrays, and
`std::map`/`std::unordered_map` with a non-string key -- read exactly the
elements they need via `at` and never compare the JSON array's size to
that number. Excess elements are silently discarded, while a shortfall
throws `out_of_range.401` rather than a `type_error`. Neither direction
was documented in `conversions.md`, `get.md`, or `from_json.md`.
The existing warning covered only `std::array` and stated that a too-short
JSON array leaves the remaining elements default-constructed with no
exception thrown; that is not what happens. Generalize it to all
fixed-size destinations and correct the shortfall direction.

* docs: document the complexity of ordered_map operations
ordered_map stores its elements in a std::vector in insertion order and
has no lookup index, so emplace, operator[], at, find, count, erase, and
insert are all linear scans. The documentation stated no complexity for
any operation, neither in ordered_map.md nor in ordered_json.md.
Add a per-operation complexity table and note the consequence: building
or parsing an ordered_json object of n keys is O(n^2). Measured with
-O2 -DNDEBUG for parsing a flat object of n keys, ordered_json is 5x
slower than json at n=2000 and 54x slower at n=16000, with the timings
quadrupling per doubling of n. Cross-reference the table from
ordered_json.md and from the object order page, which recommends
ordered_json without mentioning the cost.

throw it. Generalized, and added the BSON EOF example (#5332).
- parse_error.112: added the BSON document-size mismatch example
(#5287).
- parse_error.113 said "while parsing a map key", but its own existing
UBJSON char example already contradicted that. Broadened to cover
invalid length specifications, and added the negative-string-length
example (#5284).
- out_of_range.408 said "of an UBJSON array or object"; CBOR now throws
it too (#5274). Generalized and added both CBOR examples.

* 📝 Correct which types may be referenced in a tuple extraction
The note added in #5271 said a referenced type must be one the library
stores "or an arithmetic type it can convert to/from". The parenthetical
is wrong: is_compatible_reference_type requires an exact match against
the stored types, so std::tuple<int&> is rejected by static_assert even
though int converts fine as a value. Only the value case is permissive.
Spell out the eight admissible types, give the int& counter-example, and
separate the reference restriction from by-value conversion.

Follow-up to #5342, which fixed the parser callback leaving a discarded
member behind when an array or a value under an object key was rejected.
The documentation of parser_callback_t only stated that discarded values
in structured types are skipped, without saying that this covers object
parents and that the key is removed along with the value, so there was no
way to tell the fixed behavior from the buggy one.
Spell out the discarding rules, add an example that exercises the cases
the fix repaired, and correct the return value description: a discarded
top-level value is replaced by null, not by "an empty discarded object".

* docs: document RFC 8259 / JSONTestSuite compliance and parse() vs operator>> strictness
The compliance story lived only in tests/src/unit-testsuites.cpp, so
drive-by comparisons kept claiming the library "does not fully pass
JSONTestSuite". Make it discoverable:
- README: add a "Standards compliance" note stating that both nst
JSONTestSuite revisions run in CI, that all mandatory y_/n_ cases pass
through the strict parse() entry point, and listing the deliberate
implementation-defined i_ choices (unbounded nesting, silent BOM
stripping, noncharacters forwarded, strict rejection of invalid UTF-8
and lone surrogates, out_of_range.406 on numeric overflow).
- features/parsing: add a "Strictness and trailing data" section
documenting that parse() is strict and rejects trailing data while
operator>> follows relaxed iostream semantics (parses one value and
leaves the stream positioned after it) -- the single place a naive
test yields a "non-compliant" result.

is_comparable used a flat && chain to both exclude json_pointer/string
comparisons (added for #4621) and check whether Compare(A, B) is well-formed.
Naming std::is_constructible<decltype(...)> as a later operand of that chain
still causes the decltype to be substituted regardless of the first
operand's value, since the operands aren't lazily deferred like
std::conjunction would defer them. That instantiates the transparent
std::equal_to<>::operator() used by ordered_json, whose noexcept-specifier
evaluates the deprecated json_pointer/string operator==, which Clang (unlike
GCC in this case) warns about even though the result is discarded.
Split is_comparable so the Compare(A, B) checks live in a separate helper
that is only referenced from the specialization selected when
is_json_pointer_of is false, so the decltype is never written when A/B are
a json_pointer/string pair, regardless of compiler.

operator>>'s notes state that it leaves the stream positioned right
after the parsed value, so that concatenated JSON values can be read
back to back. That does not hold when the value is a number: a number
is only terminated by the character that follows it, and the lexer's
unget() is simulated (it rewinds only the lexer's own bookkeeping),
so that character stays consumed from the stream.
Document the actual behaviour: the guarantee holds for all value types
except numbers, which must be followed by whitespace. Also qualify the
cross-reference on the JSON Lines page, which repeated the unqualified
claim.
Documentation only; the behaviour itself is tracked in #5340.

* read ndarray elements through get<> instead of a fixed union member
_ArrayType_ names the wire type, not how the value is stored: parsing
keeps a non-negative integer as number_unsigned while the C++ API keeps
an int literal as number_integer. Selecting the union member from the
type marker therefore reads the inactive alternative for one of the two,
so read through get<> instead, which dispatches on the active member.
Also reject a negative _ArraySize_ entry, which is not a usable
dimension, and cover the parse-built path in the tests.

Closes#3106. set(JSON_Diagnostics ON) before find_package() has no
effect on a package built and installed elsewhere (Homebrew, vcpkg, a
system package, etc.) -- the compile definition is baked into the
exported nlohmann_jsonTargets.cmake at install time and the generated
config script never re-reads that variable. Verified empirically
against the real Homebrew-installed 3.12.0 package: the exported
target carries a fixed $<$<BOOL:OFF>:JSON_DIAGNOSTICS=1>, and the
suggested set(JSON_Diagnostics ON) snippet produces no change in
exception output.
Documents the actual working fix (overriding the imported target's
INTERFACE_COMPILE_DEFINITIONS property after find_package()) and the
multi-target "JSON_DIAGNOSTICS redefined" pitfall reported earlier in
the issue thread.
