# basic_json::accept
|
|
|
|
```cpp
|
|
// (1)
|
|
template<typename InputType>
|
|
static bool accept(InputType&& i,
|
|
const bool ignore_comments = false);
|
|
|
|
// (2)
|
|
template<typename IteratorType>
|
|
static bool accept(IteratorType first, IteratorType last,
|
|
const bool ignore_comments = false);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Checks whether the input is valid JSON.
|
|
|
|
1. Reads from a compatible input.
|
|
2. Reads from a pair of character iterators
|
|
|
|
The value_type of the iterator must be a integral type with size of 1, 2 or 4 bytes, which will be interpreted
|
|
respectively as UTF-8, UTF-16 and UTF-32.
|
|
|
|
Unlike the [`parse`](parse.md) function, this function neither throws an exception in case of invalid JSON input
|
|
(i.e., a parse error) nor creates diagnostic information.
|
|
|
|
## Template parameters
|
|
|
|
`InputType`
|
|
: A compatible input, for instance:
|
|
|
|
- an `std::istream` object
|
|
- a `FILE` pointer
|
|
- a C-style array of characters
|
|
- a pointer to a null-terminated string of single byte characters
|
|
- an object `obj` for which `begin(obj)` and `end(obj)` produces a valid pair of iterators.
|
|
|
|
`IteratorType`
|
|
: a compatible iterator type
|
|
|
|
## Parameters
|
|
|
|
`i` (in)
|
|
: Input to parse from.
|
|
|
|
`ignore_comments` (in)
|
|
: whether comments should be ignored and treated like whitespace (`#!cpp true`) or yield a parse error
|
|
(`#!cpp false`); (optional, `#!cpp false` by default)
|
|
|
|
`first` (in)
|
|
: iterator to start of character range
|
|
|
|
`last` (in)
|
|
: iterator to end of character range
|
|
|
|
## Return value
|
|
|
|
Whether the input is valid JSON.
|
|
|
|
## Exception safety
|
|
|
|
Strong guarantee: if an exception is thrown, there are no changes in the JSON value.
|
|
|
|
## Complexity
|
|
|
|
Linear in the length of the input. The parser is a predictive LL(1) parser.
|
|
|
|
## Notes
|
|
|
|
(1) A UTF-8 byte order mark is silently ignored.
|
|
|
|
## Examples
|
|
|
|
??? example
|
|
|
|
The example below demonstrates the `accept()` function reading from a string.
|
|
|
|
```cpp
|
|
--8<-- "examples/accept__string.cpp"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Output:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
--8<-- "examples/accept__string.output"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Version history
|
|
|
|
- Added in version 3.0.0.
|
|
- Ignoring comments via `ignore_comments` added in version 3.9.0.
