Niels Lohmann 98b6b49423 De-duplicate the diagnostic-positions test files via define-based recompilation
tests/src/unit-class_parser_diagnostic_positions.cpp and
tests/src/unit-diagnostic-positions-only.cpp were maintained as near-copies
of unit-class_parser.cpp and unit-diagnostic-positions.cpp respectively, and
had drifted: trailing-comma handling, the #5342 filter-array/filter-value
sections, and the cross-input-adapter diagnostics test were never ported to
the positions-enabled copy.

Fold the position-specific assertions into the base files, guarded by
file a second time with the relevant macro set via CMake COMPILE_DEFINITIONS
(mirroring the existing test-comparison_legacy pattern) instead of
maintaining a separate source file. This removes the duplication and, as a
side effect, closes the coverage gaps above since the full test file now
compiles under JSON_DIAGNOSTIC_POSITIONS=1 as well.

Fixes #5417

Niels Lohmann c9f1d2d646 Broaden JSON_HEDLEY_WARN_UNUSED_RESULT coverage to pure query functions (#5477)
* Broaden JSON_HEDLEY_WARN_UNUSED_RESULT coverage to pure query functions

Add JSON_HEDLEY_WARN_UNUSED_RESULT to the unambiguous, const,
side-effect-free observer functions whose return value is the entire
purpose of the call:

- dump()
- type(), type_name()
- all is_* predicates (is_primitive, is_structured, is_null,
  is_boolean, is_number, is_number_integer, is_number_unsigned,
  is_number_float, is_object, is_array, is_string, is_binary,
  is_discarded)
- empty(), size(), max_size()
- count(...) (both overloads) and contains(...) (all overloads,
  including the deprecated json_pointer<BasicJsonType> overload)

This mirrors the direction the standard library has taken with
[[nodiscard]] on the analogous std::vector/std::map members, and
catches real bugs such as `j.empty();` (meant `j.clear();`) or
`j.contains(k);` with the result thrown away.

Deliberately out of scope (left for a separate, later policy
decision, per the issue): at(), value(), get*(), flatten(),
unflatten(), patch(), merge_patch(), begin()/end(), comparison
operators, erase(), and emplace().

Compiling the full test suite (tests/src/unit-*.cpp) with
-Wunused-result -Werror uncovered one real hit: a regression test in
unit-regression2.cpp called dump() purely to check it does not throw,
discarding the result. Fixed by explicitly casting to void, since the
call is intentionally result-less there.

Fixes #5410

* Fix discarded nodiscard results across the test suite for GCC's warn_unused_result

A plain (void) cast on a call expression suppresses the C++17 [[nodiscard]]
warning but not GCC's warning for functions annotated via the GNU
__attribute__((warn_unused_result)) form -- which is what
JSON_HEDLEY_WARN_UNUSED_RESULT expands to on GCC. Several existing tests
that call a newly-annotated function (dump(), empty()) purely to check
that it throws/does not throw, discarding the result via (void), newly
warned (and failed -Werror builds) once the annotation was broadened.
Route those discards through a small ignore_return_value() helper
instead, which actually consumes the value and suppresses the warning
on both attribute forms.

* Use utils::ignore_return_value() for the issue #1445 dump() discard too

Addresses review feedback from @gregmarr on PR #5477: this call site was
still using the older "capture in a variable, then (void) it" pattern
from before this PR introduced utils::ignore_return_value(), instead of
the helper now used at every other discarded-nodiscard-result call site
this PR touches.

Niels Lohmann 6d86cc0f6b Speed up whitespace skipping in the lexer (#5490)
* Speed up whitespace skipping in the lexer

lexer::skip_whitespace() called get() for every whitespace byte, and
get() checks the (almost always false, once past the first character)
next_unget flag on every call. skip_whitespace() now reads its first
character with get() (needed to honor a pending unget() left over from
finishing the previous token, e.g. scan_number() always ungets the
character that terminated the number) and every further whitespace
character with a new get_ignoring_pending_unget() variant that skips
that branch, since nothing in the loop calls unget().

This is a narrower fix than the full contiguous-buffer bulk-skip
suggested in the issue (scan a run of whitespace directly in the
adapter's buffer and update position counters once per run). That
approach depends on bulk-scan adapter infrastructure
(supports_bulk_scan/bulk_data()/bulk_skip()) introduced by the open,
unmerged parser-performance PR #5283, which this change intentionally
does not depend on or replicate. Building new bulk-scan adapter
infrastructure from scratch was judged out of scope/riskier than
warranted here, so this change is limited to the safe, always-correct
improvement of removing redundant per-character bookkeeping from the
existing byte-at-a-time loop; full bulk-skipping is left as future
work once #5283 (or equivalent adapter support) lands.

Line/column/byte-offset bookkeeping is untouched and verified
bit-for-bit identical before and after this change, including for
pretty-printed (dump(4)) input with embedded newlines.

Fixes #5412

Stacked on top of the PR for #5411 (branch
issue-5411-lexer-skip-conversion).

* Fix codegen regression in skip_whitespace() from #5490

Benchmarking found the get()/get_ignoring_pending_unget() split in
skip_whitespace() made long whitespace runs (e.g. indentation in
pretty-printed JSON) 1.75x-3.2x SLOWER instead of faster, reproducible
with both Apple Clang and GCC.

Root cause: rewriting the loop from a plain do-while into an initial
get() followed by a while-loop defeated the compiler's ability to keep
the input adapter's read/end pointers in registers across iterations;
both compilers instead reloaded them from memory on every character.
The function split itself was not the problem (it still fully
inlines); the loop's control-flow shape was.

The fix keeps the same two-function structure but restores a
do-while shape (guarded by an if for the "first char not whitespace"
case), which lets both compilers hoist the pointers back into
registers, matching or beating pre-#5490 performance.

* Fix clang-tidy raw-string-literal finding and guard a new test against JSON_NOEXCEPTION

The issue #5412 whitespace-skipping test added a check_error() helper that
relies on catching json::parse_error to verify the exception message; under
JSON_NOEXCEPTION, JSON_THROW aborts instead of throwing, which crashed
ci_test_noexceptions (and cascaded into the other ci_cmake_options jobs).
Guard the whole section with #if !defined(JSON_NOEXCEPTION), matching the
existing pattern used by sibling tests in this file.

Also switch one escaped string literal to a raw string literal to satisfy
clang-tidy's modernize-raw-string-literal check.

Niels Lohmann faa35cc647 Skip integer conversion in accept()/SAX validation when the value is unused (#5484)
* Skip integer conversion in accept()/SAX validation when the value is unused

lexer::scan_number() always converted every numeric token with
strtoull()/strtoll() before returning, even though accept() (and any
consumer using json_sax_acceptor) immediately discards the converted
value. For value_unsigned/value_integer tokens whose digit count
already guarantees the value fits into 64 bits, the conversion cannot
change the accept/reject decision (such tokens are always finite and
unconditionally accepted), so scan_number() can skip strtoull()/
strtoll() entirely in that case when the caller signals it does not
need the value. Numbers with more digits keep using the exact,
unmodified conversion path, so overflow reclassification to
value_float (and the finiteness check on it) is unaffected.

parse() and value_float handling are completely unchanged.

Niels LohmannandClaude Opus 4.8 eed1587000 Reconstruct lexer diagnostics lazily for seekable input (#120) (#5234)
`lexer::get()` copied every scanned character into `token_string` on the
whole successful-parse hot path, yet that buffer is consumed only by
`get_token_string()` when rendering the "last read" fragment of a parse
error. On well-formed input the per-byte copy (plus the `unget()` pop)
is pure overhead that is always discarded.

For seekable input adapters - random-access, single-byte iterators such
as those backing `std::string`, `const char*`, and `std::vector<char>` -
the offending token is now reconstructed on demand from the input when
an error is reported, using a saved start offset, and the eager copy is
skipped. Streaming adapters (file, istream, wide-string, and user-defined
adapters) keep the eager copy; the strategy is chosen at compile time via
`input_adapter_supports_seek`, so adapters without the capability are
unaffected.

Error messages are byte-for-byte identical across all adapters, verified
by a new parity regression test. Microbenchmark (4 MB mixed JSON, parsed
from a std::string): ~149 -> ~160 MB/s, about +8%.

risa2000andRichard Musil fd17b0889e Remove nullptr safety check from sax_parse functions (#5139)
PR #4873 introduced a safety check in sax_parse functions to catch
nullptr passed as SAX parser object, which had been already annotated by
JSON_HEDLEY_NON_NULL macro.

Compilers (e.g. clang) which respected the non-null annotation tended to
eliminate the safety check completely in optimized builds, while
compilers which did not, compiled the safety check in. This led to
different behaviors accross different compilers/platforms  and/or build
types (debug, release).

This commit reverts PR #4873 to remove this discrepancy. Passing null to
non-null annotated parameter is considered to be undefined behavior.

Fixes #5048
