* Drop stale LCOV_EXCL_LINE from the json_pointer out_of_range.410 throw
The comment said the size_type overflow check in array_index() is only
triggered on special platforms like 32-bit, and the throw was excluded
from coverage. On 64-bit platforms the check is true for SIZE_MAX
itself, and unit-json_pointer.cpp has asserted that case four times
since #5395, so the line is executed in the coverage job. Reword the
comment and remove the exclusion marker so the coverage report notices
if the tests stop reaching it.

* Name all three C-array check aliases in the enum-macro NOLINTs
NLOHMANN_JSON_SERIALIZE_ENUM(_STRICT) suppressed the c-array warning
under modernize-avoid-c-arrays only, but clang-tidy emits the same
diagnostic under the aliases cppcoreguidelines-avoid-c-arrays and
hicpp-avoid-c-arrays too. Any user running those checks got a false
positive at every macro expansion, and our own tests needed a local
NOLINT at each call site to work around it.
Name all three aliases in the four macro comments instead, and drop
the now-redundant c-array names from the five test call-site NOLINTs.
Comment-only change; behavior, the public API, and the ABI do not
change. Ran make amalgamate.

* Include doctest as a SYSTEM directory instead of disabling warnings for all tests
test_main added -Wno-deprecated and -Wno-float-equal as PUBLIC compile
options for every non-MSVC compiler, so they were applied to every
translation unit, library headers included, and silenced the CI
warnings meant to check the library's own -Wfloat-equal pragmas. The
only code that actually needed the suppression was the vendored
doctest.h, which was included as a normal (non-SYSTEM) directory.
Include thirdparty/doctest as SYSTEM for test_main, matching what
tests/abi/CMakeLists.txt already does, and drop the two suppressions
from both targets. Verified locally that unit-comparison,
unit-conversions and unit-constructor1 compile clean with
-Werror -Weverything and doctest as -isystem, and that CMake still
configures with JSON_BuildTests=ON.

* Remove the no-op ci_clang_analyze target
ci_clang_analyze configured the build with the real compiler and only
then wrapped ninja with scan-build. scan-build intercepts compiles by
overriding CC/CXX, but build.ninja already had the compiler path baked
in from the configure step, so every run bypassed the analyzer: CI
logs show "No bugs found" after a normal build, never an analysis.
The job also used Debian's frozen clang-tools-14 rather than the
image's own clang, and CLANG_ANALYZER_CHECKS still named three
valist.* checkers that current clang merged into security.VAList.
ci_clang_tidy already runs every clang-analyzer-* check (via
.clang-tidy's "Checks: '*'") with warnings as errors, so nothing is
lost by removing the dead job. Delete ci_clang_analyze,
CLANG_ANALYZER_CHECKS and the SCAN_BUILD_TOOL lookup from
cmake/ci.cmake, drop it from the ubuntu.yml ci_static_analysis_clang
matrix, and drop the now-unused clang-tools apt package (iwyu stays
for ci_single_binaries). Reword quality_assurance.md and
assurance_case.md, which described the dead job as a working control,
to say the Clang Static Analyzer checks run through clang-tidy.
Verified that `cmake -DJSON_CI=ON` still configures cleanly and that
ci_clang_analyze no longer appears in the generated build or in any
CMake/workflow file.

* Re-enable portability-template-virtual-member-function; remove redundant forwards
.clang-tidy disabled three checks "to get the CI going" (#4489,
2024-11-13): portability-template-virtual-member-function,
bugprone-use-after-move and its alias hicpp-invalid-access-moved.
portability-template-virtual-member-function only flagged
output_stream_adapter::write_character/write_characters; annotate
both with NOLINT and re-enable the check.
bugprone-use-after-move flagged several double forwards that have no
effect at runtime:
- from_json.hpp calls std::forward<BasicJsonType>(j).at(Idx) inside
pack expansions; at() has no ref-qualified overloads and always
returns an lvalue reference, so the forward is a no-op. Replace with
plain j.at(Idx) in all four places.
- the move constructor forwards the whole object to its base class
and then reads other's members. That is item 9 of #5724 (together
with its cppcheck suppressions) and is left to that change.
- input_adapters.hpp forwards the container twice on purpose, so the
begin/end iterator types match adapter_type; annotate with NOLINT
and a comment instead of changing behavior.
The check still flags the move constructor (see above) and two sites
in at(KeyType&&) (both overloads, json.hpp, in the throw's
string_t(std::forward<KeyType>(key)) after
find(std::forward<KeyType>(key))). Open PR #5689 rewrites that hunk,
so bugprone-use-after-move (and hicpp-invalid-access-moved)
stay disabled for now, with a comment explaining why; re-enable them
once #5689 and the #5724 move-constructor change have landed.
Also resolve the portability-avoid-pragma-once TODO: single_include
never has #pragma once (amalgamate.py strips it) and every supported
compiler accepts it in include/, so keep it disabled with an
explanatory comment instead of a TODO. Fix the stale "json.hpp,
around line 1265" comment in unit-class_parser.cpp, which now points
at the move constructor's actual line.
Behavior, the public API and the ABI do not change. Verified with
clang-tidy 22.1.8 that portability-template-virtual-member-function
now reports nothing, that bugprone-use-after-move/
hicpp-invalid-access-moved report only the known at(KeyType&&) and
move-constructor sites, and that unit-custom-base-class, unit-constructor1,
unit-conversions, unit-element_access2, unit-class_parser and
unit-diagnostic-positions (JSON_DIAGNOSTIC_POSITIONS=1) compile
under ASan/UBSan and pass with the same assertion counts as before.

* Fix stale and malformed NOLINT comments
json_sax.hpp named "-warnings-as-errors" in the NOLINT list on the two
JSON_ASSERT(false) lines; that is the suffix clang-tidy appends to a
diagnostic tag under WarningsAsErrors, not a check name, and every
other JSON_ASSERT(false) omits it.
unit-capacity.cpp carried 30 "// NOLINT(misc-const-correctness)"
comments on "json j = ...;" declarations that are all used with
non-const members afterwards, so the check has nothing to report
there.
unit-constructor2.cpp used a blanket "// NOLINT: access after move is
OK here" on a use-after-move that hides every check on the line;
naming bugprone-use-after-move and hicpp-invalid-access-moved keeps
the intent once those checks are re-enabled (#5724).

* Remove the GCC C++20 -Wignored-attributes pragma in json.hpp
The pragma (added in #5164) claimed to work around the C++ modules
redefinition errors of #5103, but #5103 is about hard errors (e.g.
"redefinition of std::__is_constant_evaluated()", conflicting
std::integral_constant) that ignoring a warning cannot suppress; they
are traced to GCC PR 124430 and reproduce with <map> or <string>
instead of json.hpp too. A GCC 16.2 -std=gnu++20 -fmodules build
following #5103's repro steps still fails with the pragma in place,
and a build of all test TUs with GCC_CXXFLAGS (which enable
-Wignored-attributes) and the pragma removed produces no such
warning. The block only hid a warning class from GCC C++20 users
while suggesting #5103 was handled.

* Fix stale doxygen comments hidden by the -Wdocumentation pragma
macro_scope.hpp ignores -Wdocumentation and -Wdocumentation-unknown-command
for the whole library, which also hides genuine documentation mistakes:
- detail::unescape() documented "@return unescaped string" but returns
void and unescapes its argument in place; reworded to
"@param[in,out] s string to unescape in place" and dropped the
bogus @return.
- basic_json::get()'s copy-conversion overload wrote "converted to
@tparam ValueType" inside @return, which Doxygen and Clang parse as
a second, malformed @tparam; changed to "@a ValueType", matching the
two other get() overloads a few lines above that already use it.
This narrows the gap the -Wdocumentation pragma needs to cover; fully

* Fix -Wextra-semi-stmt at its actual source, not assert()
clang_flags.cmake blamed the global -Wno-extra-semi-stmt on assert(),
but assert() expands to an expression under glibc and libc++ and does
not trigger this warning. unit-assert_macro.cpp overrides JSON_ASSERT
with "{if (!(x)) ++assert_counter; }", a bare block followed by a
semicolon at every JSON_ASSERT(...) call site in the library; that
was the actual source of 151 of the 208 -Wextra-semi-stmt sites found
in a Clang 22 -Weverything sweep of the test suite with the flag
removed. Switched to the standard do/while(false) macro idiom, which
does not expand to a statement-plus-semicolon, and corrected the
comment to name the remaining source instead: vendored Doctest's
CAPTURE(x) shim, which already ends in a semicolon.

doctest_compatibility.h defines CAPTURE(x) as DOCTEST_CAPTURE(x); (with
a trailing semicolon baked into the macro), specifically so call sites
do not need to add one themselves; most of the ~267 call sites already
follow that convention. The remaining 64 call sites across 20 files
wrote "CAPTURE(x);" anyway, turning into a statement plus an empty
statement and triggering -Wextra-semi-stmt. Dropped the redundant
semicolon at each of those sites.
With item 6 having already made vendored Doctest a SYSTEM include, and
this the last known source of -Wextra-semi-stmt findings, removed the
flag from clang_flags.cmake entirely.

* Switch ci_static_analysis_clang off the frozen LLVM 22 dev image
ubuntu.yml pinned the clang-tidy/clang-tidy-sanitizer/single-binaries
job to silkeh/clang:dev, a tag last pushed 2026-02-18 that reports
"clang version 22.0.0 (...+20251015...)", a pre-release snapshot from
before the LLVM 22 release; the maintainer now updates dev-unstable,
22, and latest instead. Switched to silkeh/clang:22, matching the
other clang jobs on :latest.
Verified with clang-tidy 22.1.8 (the image's actual version) against
this repository's .clang-tidy and library headers what the release
image newly reports compared to :dev:
- readability-redundant-typename fires at ~250 sites across the
_cpp20-relevant conversion/to_chars headers; the library targets
C++11 and keeps the typenames, so the check is disabled in
.clang-tidy, matching how the file already handles checks that
don't fit a C++11 codebase.
- misc-anonymous-namespace-in-header fires on the two anonymous
namespaces in from_json.hpp and to_json.hpp; added the alias to
their existing NOLINT (cert-dcl59-cpp, fuchsia-header-anon-namespaces,
google-build-namespaces).
- bugprone-std-namespace-modification fires on every addition to
namespace std: the std::hash, std::formatter and std::swap
overloads in json.hpp, and the std::tuple_size/std::tuple_element
specializations in iteration_proxy.hpp (this last file is not named
in #5725's item 5, found by actually running clang-tidy 22.1.8
against the current tree). All six are legal, deliberate additions
to namespace std (explicit/partial specializations of std types, or
the pre-C++20 std::swap overload); annotated each with the check
name next to its existing cert-dcl58-cpp NOLINT.
- modernize-avoid-c-style-cast reported nothing new.
Also added clang++-22/21, clang-tidy-22/21, g++-16 and gcov-16 to the
find_program search lists in ci.cmake so a local "maximal warnings"
configure prefers the current toolchain version over an older one on

* Regenerate cmake/gcc_flags.cmake for GCC 16.2.0
GCC_CXXFLAGS was generated for GCC 15.1.0, but ci_test_gcc and
ci_test_gcc_cxx{11..26} now run in gcc:latest, currently GCC 16.2.0,
so the "maximal warnings" job was missing warnings introduced since
15.1.0 while carrying entries GCC 16 treats as duplicates or no-ops.
Regenerated with https://github.com/nlohmann/gcc_flags (patched
locally to not crash on an option whose "-x c++ <opt> -" probe fails
before it reads stdin, e.g. -Wabi=; the tool otherwise raises
BrokenPipeError instead of recording the option as an error) run
against g++ 16.2.0 in the official gcc:16 Docker image, keeping the
documented -Wno-* exclusions and the same alphabetical placement
scheme as before.
Also added three GCC 16 warnings the generator cannot discover on its
own because it only probes value ranges/lists it finds in the -Q
option name itself, not in the enum choices --help=warnings documents
separately:
- -Wbidi-chars=any, -Wleading-whitespace=spaces: manually verified
these compile cleanly with g++ 16.2.0.
- -Wstrict-flex-arrays: deliberately NOT added, unlike the other two.
Without -fstrict-flex-arrays (which the library does not enable, as
it would change codegen for flexible array members), GCC prints
"'-Wstrict-flex-arrays' is ignored when '-fstrict-flex-arrays' is
not present" on every translation unit, and under our -Werror that
note itself aborts the build. This differs from the harmless
no-op warnings already kept in the file (-Whsa, -Wsynth,
-Wunreachable-code, -Wunsafe-loop-optimizations), which emit
nothing; #5725 item 7 named -Wstrict-flex-arrays as one of the
flags GCC 16 adds, but did not anticipate this failure mode.
Verified: compiled the library header and a representative set of
test translation units (including ones touched by items 1, 3, 8, 9,
10 of this issue) with the regenerated GCC_CXXFLAGS plus -Werror
under g++ 16.2.0 at -std=c++11 through -std=c++26, with zero warnings;
ran the full local test suite (129/129 passing, unrelated to this
compiler) as a regression check. CI must still confirm the actual
ci_test_gcc / ci_test_standards_gcc targets end to end, since this was
verified with direct g++ invocations rather than through the CMake/
CXXFLAGS environment-variable plumbing in ci.cmake.

* Avoid std::basic_string<CharType> for non-character output_adapter CharType
output_adapter<CharType, StringType> defaulted StringType to
std::basic_string<CharType>, and (with JSON_NO_IO undefined) always
declared a std::basic_ostream<CharType>&-taking constructor. For
CharType with no non-deprecated std::char_traits specialization (only
std::uint8_t is ever used this way, by the binary writers), simply
naming either type - as an unused default template argument, or as an
unused, never-called constructor's parameter type - instantiates
std::char_traits<CharType> merely to name it, which some standard
libraries mark deprecated: with the library-wide -Wdocumentation
pragma (item 2's other half, left for a later commit) temporarily
removed, an Apple clang 21 / libc++ TU calling json::to_cbor(j, vec)
with std::vector<std::uint8_t>& got one -Wdeprecated-declarations
warning per binary writer at the old output_adapters.hpp:193.
Replaced the eager std::basic_string<CharType> / std::basic_ostream
<CharType> defaults with a bool-tagged partial specialization (not
std::conditional, which requires naming both branches' types up
front regardless of which is selected, reproducing the same warning)
that only ever names std::basic_string<CharType> / std::basic_ostream
<CharType> when CharType is actually one of char, wchar_t, char16_t,
char32_t, or (with __cpp_lib_char8_t) char8_t. For any other
CharType, output_adapter's StringType and ostream-constructor
parameter fall back to two distinct empty placeholder types, kept
distinct so the two constructor overloads do not collide into a
single redeclaration.
Public API / behavior: passing a std::basic_string<std::uint8_t>& or
std::basic_ostream<std::uint8_t>& directly to a binary writer's
output_adapter now fails to compile instead of compiling with a
deprecation warning; this was neither documented nor tested. All
documented uses (std::vector<CharType>, std::basic_ostream<CharType>
and StringType for character CharType) are unaffected.
Verified with Apple clang 21 / libc++, with the two -Wdocumentation*
"ignored" pragma lines in macro_scope.hpp temporarily removed and
-std=c++11/c++20 plus the project's -Weverything flag set: calling
to_cbor/to_msgpack/to_ubjson/to_bjdata/to_bson/to_bon8 on a
std::vector<std::uint8_t> now produces no char_traits<unsigned char>
(or any other) deprecation warning, while the char-based string- and
ostream-adapter paths, and a to_cbor/from_cbor round trip, still
compile and run correctly; also verified with GCC 16.2.0. Ran the
full local test suite, including the binary-format unit tests
(unit-cbor, unit-msgpack, unit-ubjson, unit-bjdata, unit-bson,
unit-bon8, unit-binary_writer_sinks, unit-binary_formats,
unit-custom-binary-type): 129/129 passing.

* Remove the library-wide -Wdocumentation pragma; fix what it hid
macro_scope.hpp / macro_unscope.hpp pushed and popped a Clang
diagnostic region over the entire library that ignored -Wdocumentation
and -Wdocumentation-unknown-command. Removed both pragmas and fixed
every finding a full -Wdocumentation (which implies
-Wdocumentation-unknown-command and -Wdocumentation-deprecated-sync)
build reports, so the library now compiles clean under Clang's
documentation checks without a blanket suppression. Overlaps #5267,
which is still open and edits a nearby doc block (json.hpp's
get()/get_impl() @return, already fixed in the item 2 step (b) commit
of this branch); this commit does not touch that block again.
Unknown Doxygen alias commands (Doxyfile removed in #3071, so these
were never rendered by anything) rewritten as plain prose, keeping the
same information:
- @requirement REQ-JSON-01 / REQ-JSON-02 (iter_impl.hpp,
json_reverse_iterator.hpp): now "This class satisfies the following
concept requirements (REQ-JSON-0N):".
- @liveexample{prose,example-id} (three sites in json.hpp): kept the
prose, dropped the command wrapper and the trailing example-id
(docs/mkdocs/docs/examples/*.cpp still exist and are used directly
by the rendered docs, not through this in-header alias) and
unescaped the "\," commas that were only needed for the old alias's
comma-separated argument syntax.
- @complexity X (json.hpp x4, json_pointer.hpp x2, serializer.hpp x1):
now "Complexity: X".
Backslash sequences Clang's comment lexer tried to parse as commands,
escaped to render as literal backslashes:
- lexer.hpp get_codepoint(): two `\u` occurrences.
- binary_reader.hpp get_bson_cstr() / get_bson_cstr_bulk(): two
`\x00` occurrences.
- serializer.hpp: three `\uXXXX` occurrences (constructor @param,
append_codepoint_to_string_buffer() @brief, and the ensure_ascii
member comment).
One finding remained after all of the above: Clang reports
"declaration is marked with '@deprecated' command but does not have a
deprecation attribute" on the deprecated sax_parse(span_input_adapter&&, ...)
overload, even though JSON_HEDLEY_DEPRECATED_FOR does expand to
__attribute__((deprecated(...))) for Clang. Several isolated
reproductions of this exact declaration shape - doc comment,
template<>, two stacked __attribute__ macros, an overload set sharing
the name - did not reproduce the warning, so this looks like a
Clang comment/declaration-association quirk specific to this overload
inside the much larger basic_json class template, not an actual
documentation defect. Rather than keep the pragma library-wide for one
Clang false positive, added a tightly scoped
-Wdocumentation-deprecated-sync push/pop around just that overload.
Verified with Apple clang 21 and the project's actual -Weverything
flag set (cmake/clang_flags.cmake) on the full header at -std=c++11
and -std=c++20: zero -Wdocumentation* diagnostics. Also compiled
clean with GCC 16.2.0 (the pragmas are already __clang__-gated, so
this only confirms no unrelated breakage). Ran make check-amalgamation

* Take the JSON value by const reference in the array and tuple from_json paths
Review feedback on #5737 (gregmarr): once the no-op std::forward calls
are gone, the forwarding references have no purpose. from_json_fn
passes the value as const BasicJsonType&, so these functions were only
ever instantiated with a const lvalue anyway.
The std::array, std::pair and std::tuple overloads of from_json and
their helpers now take const BasicJsonType& and pass j on unchanged.
Because the deduced BasicJsonType is now the plain type, tuple_type and
the static_assert name const BasicJsonType& explicitly, so the
reference checks are unchanged: get<std::tuple<const std::string&>>()
still works, and get<std::tuple<std::string&>>() still fails the same
static_assert. from_json_tuple_get_impl keeps its forwarding reference,
since tuple_type calls it through std::declval.
Behavior, the public API and the ABI do not change. unit-conversions,
unit-constructor1, unit-udt, unit-udt_macro, unit-regression1/2/3,
unit-deserialization, unit-noexcept, unit-items, unit-allocator,
unit-custom-object-type, unit-ordered_json2 and

When converting a JSON array to std::map or std::unordered_map with a
non-string key, each element must itself be a [key, value] array. If an
element is not an array, from_json() threw type_error 302 with the outer
array's value (&j) as the exception context, so with JSON_DIAGNOSTICS
enabled the message pointed at the whole array instead of the offending
element (e.g. "(/outer/m)" instead of "(/outer/m/2)"), even though the
message text already described the element's type.
Both from_json() overloads now pass the element (&p) as the context, so
the reported JSON Pointer matches the type named in the message, the
same way std::vector<std::vector<T>> and similar conversions already do.

* Reserve capacity in from_json() object conversion when supported
The object-to-container from_json() overload filled the target
container one element at a time without reserving capacity, even
when the target type supports reserve() (e.g. std::unordered_map)
and the number of elements is already known. This caused unnecessary
rehashing while parsing large objects into such containers.
Add a reserve-detecting overload (from_json_object_impl), mirroring
the priority_tag-based SFINAE technique already used by the array

1. Assign values of that type directly to create binary values (not arrays)
2. Extract binary values back to that type with get<>()

- Update to_json to accept custom BinaryType values directly
- Update from_json to handle both binary and array inputs for custom BinaryType
- Add #include <vector> with IWYU comment to from_json.hpp

* Fix compile error when using nlohmann ordered_map with WITH_DEFAULT macros
ordered_map inherits its copy and move assignment from the underlying std vector, which requires value_type to be CopyAssignable. value_type is pair<const Key, T> whose assignment is deleted because of the const Key, so any code that assigns ordered_map (for example the ternary in NLOHMANN_JSON_FROM_WITH_DEFAULT) fails to compile (issue #5122). Provide assignment operators on ordered_map that rebuild via clear plus push_back for copy and transfer the underlying buffer for move, neither of which needs pair assignment. Also switch the map-shaped from_json overload from a transform plus inserter idiom to a range-for plus emplace, which avoids the same hazard.

* Address CI issues for ordered_map fix
Declare an explicit defaulted destructor on ordered_map so the rule of five is complete (clang-tidy cppcoreguidelines-special-member-functions and hicpp-special-member-functions). Initialize the ordered_map field in the regression test struct so GCC effective-C++ stops flagging Example_5122 with a missing member initializer.

* Suppress redundant-member-init lint on Example_5122::c
The empty brace-init on c{} is required by GCC -Weffc++ to mark the member as initialized in the synthesized default constructor, but clang-tidy readability-redundant-member-init flags the same line because ordered_map already has a default constructor. The two checks pull in opposite directions, so add a targeted NOLINT to keep both happy.

* Address review: strong exception safety in copy-assign, simplify move-assign noexcept
Copy assignment now constructs a temporary copy before move-assigning the
Container subobject, preserving *this if the copy throws. Move assignment
uses std::is_nothrow_move_assignable<Container> for a cleaner noexcept
specifier, matching the style of the move constructor.

* Restore self-assignment check in copy-assign to satisfy cert-oop54-cpp
clang-tidy's cert-oop54-cpp flagged the previous revision because it could
not recognize the implicit self-safety of the copy-then-move pattern.
Restore the explicit `if (this != &other)` guard — strong exception safety
is preserved since the temporary copy is still constructed before the
move-assign of the Container subobject.

* Address review: gate -Wself-assign-overloaded suppression on Clang version
-Wself-assign-overloaded was introduced in Clang 7. Older Clang versions fail the build with "unknown warning group" when the suppression pragma references it unconditionally. Use __has_warning inside an __clang__ branch so the suppression is only emitted on Clang versions that recognize the warning. The inner check stays inside the __clang__ guard because GCC does not provide __has_warning and would tokenize-error on the argument list.

* Address CI: drop unused gating macro to silence -Wunused-macros
The previous attempt defined JSON_TEST_5122_SUPPRESS_SELF_ASSIGN_OVERLOADED
as 0 unconditionally and then overrode it to 1 on Clang versions that recognize the warning. On those Clangs the initial define is immediately
undef'd without being read, which trips Clang's -Wunused-macros under -Weverything in the ci_test_clang job. Drop the macro and gate the
DOCTEST_CLANG_SUPPRESS_WARNING_PUSH/POP pragmas directly with __has_warning inside the existing __clang__ branch.

Restore the previously disabled check for regression #3070 on all
compilers but MSVC.
To summarize the issue:
Given namespace fs = std::filesystem.
On MSVC attempting to construct an fs::path from json results in an
ambiguous overload resolution because fs::path can be constructed from
both a std::string as well as another fs::path.
To the best of my knowledge there is no way to fix an ambiguous overload
situation involving a type we do not control and with json implicitly
converting to both std::string and fs::path.
Re-enabling the check where it compiles and keeping it disabled for MSVC
is the best we can do.
Closes#3377 and #3382.
* Refactor unit test creation
Add functions for creating tests and to supply test- and
standard-specific build settings.
Raises minimum CMake version to 3.13 in test directory.
json_test_add_test_for(
<file>
MAIN <main>
[CXX_STANDARDS <version_number>...] [FORCE])
Given a <file> unit-foo.cpp, produces
test-foo_cpp<version_number>
if C++ standard <version_number> is supported by the compiler and
thesource file contains JSON_HAS_CPP_<version_number>. Use FORCE to
create the test regardless of the file containing
JSON_HAS_CPP_<version_number>. Test targets are linked against <main>.
CXX_STANDARDS defaults to "11".
json_test_set_test_options(
all|<tests>
[CXX_STANDARDS all|<args>...]
[COMPILE_DEFINITIONS <args>...]
[COMPILE_FEATURES <args>...]
[COMPILE_OPTIONS <args>...]
[LINK_LIBRARIES <args>...]
[LINK_OPTIONS <args>...])
Supply test- and standard-specific build settings.
Specify multiple tests using a list e.g., "test-foo;test-bar".
Must be called BEFORE the test is created.
* Use CMAKE_MODULE_PATH
* Don't undef some macros if JSON_TEST_KEEP_MACROS is defined
* Use JSON_TEST_KEEP_MACROS
Incidentally enables the regression tests for #2546 and #3070.

and a line in from_json(..., std_fs::path&) was marked with LCOV_EXCL_LINE.
* Add three-way comparison feature test macro
* Disable broken comparison if JSON_HAS_THREE_WAY_COMPARISON
* Fix redefinition of inline constexpr statics

* Fix more test build failures due to missing noexcept
* CI: update cmake_flags test to use CMake 3.13 in test directory
Also change default for JSON_BuildTests option to depend on CMake
version.
* CI: turn *_CXXFLAGS into CMake lists
* CI: use JSON_TestStandards to set CXX_STANDARD
* CI: pass extra CXXFLAGS to standards tests
* meta: rework is_compatible/is_constructible_string_type
These type traits performed an incorrect and insufficient check.
Converting to a std::filesystem::path used to work by accident thanks to
these brittle constraints, but the clean-up performed in #3020 broke them.
* support std::filesystem::path
