Summary

This release fixes two bugs introduced in release 3.10.0 and fixes the conversion of std::filesystem::path. All changes are backward-compatible.

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Fix regression bug introduced in release 3.10.0 which broke compilation for types with an explicit default constructor with default arguments. #3077 #3079
• Fix regression bug introduced in release 3.10.0 which treated the return values of std::find and std::remove as pointers which could break compilation. #3081 #3082
• Fix converting std::filesystem::path to JSON. Before release 3.10.3, such a conversion would trigger a stack overflow. Release 3.10.3 then further broke compilation on Windows. #3070 #3073

🔥 Deprecated functions

Passing iterator pairs or pointer/length pairs to parsing functions (basic_json::parse, basic_json::accept, basic_json::sax_parse, basic_json::from_cbor, basic_json::from_msgpack, basic_json::from_ubjson, basic_json::from_bson) via initializer lists is deprecated. Instead, pass two iterators; for instance, call basic_json::from_cbor(ptr, ptr+len) instead of basic_json::from_cbor({ptr, len}).

The following functions have been deprecated in earlier versions and will be removed in the next major version (i.e., 4.0.0):

• Function iterator_wrapper are deprecated. Please use the member function items() instead.
• Functions friend std::istream& operator<<(basic_json&, std::istream&) and friend std::ostream& operator>>(const basic_json&, std::ostream&) are deprecated. Please use friend std::istream& operator>>(std::istream&, basic_json&) and friend operator<<(std::ostream&, const basic_json&) instead.

All deprecations are annotated with HEDLEY_DEPRECATED_FOR to report which function to use instead.
