Unicode values are split by the JSON class into byte-sized characters during deserialization.</p> <h2 id=template-parameters>Template parameters<a class=headerlink href=#template-parameters title="Permanent link">&para;</a></h2> <dl> <dt><code>StringType</code></dt> <dd>the container to store strings (e.g., <code>std::string</code>).

Therefore, functions like <code>std::string::size()</code> or <code>std::string::length()</code> return the number of bytes in the string rather than the number of characters or glyphs.</p> <h4 id=string-comparison>String comparison<a class=headerlink href=#string-comparison title="Permanent link">&para;</a></h4> <p><a href=https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8259>RFC 8259</a> states:</p> <blockquote> <p>Software implementations are typically required to test names of object members for equality. Implementations that transform the textual representation into sequences of Unicode code units and then perform the comparison numerically, code unit by code unit, are interoperable in the sense that implementations will agree in all cases on equality or inequality of two strings. For example, implementations that compare strings with escaped characters unconverted may incorrectly find that <code>"a\\b"</code> and <code>"a\u005Cb"</code> are not equal.</p> </blockquote> <p>This implementation is interoperable as it does compare strings code unit by code unit.</p> <h4 id=storage>Storage<a class=headerlink href=#storage title="Permanent link">&para;</a></h4> <p>String values are stored as pointers in a <code>basic_json</code> type.
