- Release date: 2017-01-28 - SHA-256: a571dee92515b685784fd527e38405cf3f5e13e96edbfe3f03d6df2e363a767b This release introduces a means to convert from/to user-defined types. The release is backwards compatible. ![conversion](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/159488/22399173/aebe8f7a-e597-11e6-930f-7494ee615827.png) - :sparkles: The library now offers an elegant way to **convert from and to arbitrary value types**. All you need to do is to implement two functions: `to_json` and `from_json`. Then, a conversion is as simple as putting a `=` between variables. See the [README](https://github.com/nlohmann/json#arbitrary-types-conversions) for more information and examples. - :sparkles: **Exceptions can now be switched off.** This can be done by defining the preprocessor symbol `JSON_NOEXCEPTION` or by passing `-fno-exceptions` to your compiler. In case the code would usually thrown an exception, `abort()` is now called. - :sparkles: **Information on the library** can be queried with the new (static) function `meta()` which returns a JSON object with information on the version, compiler, and platform. See the [documentation]() for an example. - :bug: A bug in the CBOR parser was fixed which led to a buffer overflow. - :sparkles: The function [`type_name()`]() is now public. It allows to query the type of a JSON value as string. - :white_check_mark: Added the [Big List of Naughty Strings](https://github.com/minimaxir/big-list-of-naughty-strings) as test case. - :arrow_up: Updated to [Catch v1.6.0](https://github.com/philsquared/Catch/releases/tag/v1.6.0). - :memo: Some typos in the documentation have been fixed.
