> ### BREAKING CHANGES
>
> #### Support for `char` removed
>
> We cannot cast a `JsonVariant` to a `char` anymore, so the following will break:
> ```c++
> char age = doc["age"];  //  error: no matching function for call to 'variantAs(VariantData*&)'
> ```
> Instead, you must use another integral type, such as `int8_t`:
> ```c++
> int8_t age = doc["age"];  // OK
> ```
>
> Similarly, we cannot assign from a `char` anymore, so the following will break:
> ```c++
> char age;
> doc["age"] = age;  // error: no matching function for call to 'VariantRef::set(const char&)'
> ```
> Instead, you must use another integral type, such as `int8_t`:
> ```c++
> int8_t age;
> doc["age"] = age;  // OK
> ```
> A deprecation warning with the message "Support for `char` is deprecated, use `int8_t` or `uint8_t` instead" was added to allow a smooth transition.
>
> #### `as<T>()` always returns `T`
>
> Previously, `JsonVariant::as<T>()` could return a type different from `T`.
> The most common example is `as<char*>()` that returned a `const char*`.
> While this feature simplified a few use cases, it was confusing and complicated the
> implementation of custom converters.
>
> Starting from this version, `as<T>` doesn't try to auto-correct the return type and always return `T`,
> which means that you cannot write this anymore:
>
> ```c++
> Serial.println(doc["sensor"].as<char*>());  // error: invalid conversion from 'const char*' to 'char*' [-fpermissive]
> ```
> 
> Instead, you must write:
>
> ```c++
> Serial.println(doc["sensor"].as<const char*>());  // OK
> ```
>
> A deprecation warning with the message "Replace `as<char*>()` with `as<const char*>()`" was added to allow a smooth transition.
>
> #### `DeserializationError::NotSupported` removed
>
> On a different topic, `DeserializationError::NotSupported` has been removed.
> Instead of returning this error:
>
> * `deserializeJson()` leaves `\uXXXX` unchanged (only when `ARDUINOJSON_DECODE_UNICODE` is `0`)
> * `deserializeMsgPack()` replaces unsupported values with `null`s
>
> #### Const-aware `is<T>()`
>
> Lastly, a very minor change concerns `JsonVariantConst::is<T>()`.
> It used to return `true` for `JsonArray` and `JsonOject`, but now it returns `false`.
> Instead, you must use `JsonArrayConst` and `JsonObjectConst`.

> ### BREAKING CHANGES
> 
> #### Copy-constructor of `BasicJsonDocument`
>
> In previous versions, the copy constructor of `BasicJsonDocument` looked at the source's `memoryUsage()` to choose its capacity.
> Now, the copy constructor of `BasicJsonDocument` uses the same capacity as the source.
>
> Example:
>
> ```c++
> DynamicJsonDocument doc1(64);
> doc1.set(String("example"));
>
> DynamicJsonDocument doc2 = doc1;
> Serial.print(doc2.capacity());  // 8 with ArduinoJson 6.14
>                                 // 64 with ArduinoJson 6.15
> ```
>
> I made this change to get consistent results between copy-constructor and move-constructor, and whether RVO applies or not.
>
> If you use the copy-constructor to optimize your documents, you can use `garbageCollect()` or `shrinkToFit()` instead.
>
> #### Copy-constructor of `JsonDocument`
>
> In previous versions, it was possible to create a function that take a `JsonDocument` by value.
>
> ```c++
> void myFunction(JsonDocument doc) {}
> ```
>
> This function gives the wrong clues because it doesn't receive a copy of the `JsonDocument`, only a sliced version.
> It worked because the copy constructor copied the internal pointers, but it was an accident.
>
> From now, if you need to pass a `JsonDocument` to a function, you must use a reference:
>
> ```c++
> void myFunction(JsonDocument& doc) {}
> ```

>

> 
> Support for comments in input is now optional and disabled by default.
>
> If you need support for comments, you must defined `ARDUINOJSON_ENABLE_COMMENTS` to `1`; otherwise, you'll receive `InvalidInput` errors.
>
> ```c++
> #define ARDUINOJSON_ENABLE_COMMENTS 1
> #include <ArduinoJson.h>
> ```

> ### BREAKING CHANGES
> 
> #### NaN and Infinity
> 
> The JSON specification allows neither NaN not Infinity, but previous
> versions of ArduinoJson supported it. Now, ArduinoJson behaves like most
> other libraries: a NaN or and Infinity in the `JsonDocument`, becomes
> a `null` in the output JSON. Also, `deserializeJson()` returns
> `InvalidInput` if the JSON document contains NaN or Infinity.
> 
> This version still supports NaN and Infinity in JSON documents, but
> it's disabled by default to be compatible with other JSON parsers.
> If you need the old behavior back, define `ARDUINOJSON_ENABLE_NAN` and
> `ARDUINOJSON_ENABLE_INFINITY` to `1`;:
> 
> ```c++
> #define ARDUINOJSON_ENABLE_NAN 1
> #define ARDUINOJSON_ENABLE_INFINITY 1
> #include <ArduinoJson.h>
> ```
> 
> #### The "or" operator
> 
> This version slightly changes the behavior of the | operator when the 
> variant contains a float and the user requests an integer.
>
> Older versions returned the floating point value truncated.
> Now, it returns the default value.
> 
> ```c++
> // suppose variant contains 1.2
> int value = variant | 3;
> 
> // old behavior:
> value == 1
> 
> // new behavior
> value == 3
> ```
> 
> If you need the old behavior, you must add `if (variant.is<float>())`.

* Fixed `deserializeJson()` not being picky enough (issue #969)

v6.2.1-beta (2018-07-17)
-----------

* Fixed `JsonObject` not inserting keys of type `String` (issue #782)

v6.2.0-beta (2018-07-12)
-----------

* Disabled lazy number deserialization (issue #772)
* Fixed `JsonVariant::is<int>()` that returned true for empty strings
* Improved float serialization when `-fsingle-precision-constant` is used
* Renamed function `RawJson()` to `serialized()`
* `serializeMsgPack()` now supports values marked with `serialized()`

> ### BREAKING CHANGES
>
> #### Non quoted strings
>
> Non quoted strings are now forbidden in values, but they are still allowed in keys.
> For example, `{key:"value"}` is accepted, but `{key:value}` is not.
>
> #### Preformatted values
>
> Old code:
>
> ```c++
> object["values"] = RawJson("[1,2,3,4]");
> ```
> 
> New code:
> 
> ```c++
> object["values"] = serialized("[1,2,3,4]");
> ```

v6.1.0-beta (2018-07-02)
-----------

* Return `JsonArray` and `JsonObject` by value instead of reference (issue #309)
* Replaced `success()` with `isNull()`

> ### BREAKING CHANGES
> 
> Old code:
>
> ```c++
> JsonObject& obj = doc.to<JsonObject>();
> JsonArray& arr = obj.createNestedArray("key");
> if (!arr.success()) {
>   Serial.println("Not enough memory");
>   return;
> }
> ```
> 
> New code:
> 
> ```c++
> JsonObject obj = doc.to<JsonObject>();
> JsonArray arr = obj.createNestedArray("key");
> if (arr.isNull()) {
>   Serial.println("Not enough memory");
>   return;
> }
> ```

-----------

* Added `DynamicJsonDocument` and `StaticJsonDocument`
* Added `deserializeJson()`
* Added `serializeJson()` and `serializeJsonPretty()`

* Added support for non zero-terminated strings (issue #704)
* Removed `JsonBuffer::parseArray()`, `parseObject()` and `parse()`
* Removed `JsonBuffer::createArray()` and `createObject()`
* Removed `printTo()` and `prettyPrintTo()`
* Removed `measureLength()` and `measurePrettyLength()`
* Removed all deprecated features

> DynamicJsonBuffer jb;
> JsonObject& obj = jb.parseObject(json);
> if (obj.success()) {
> 
> }
> ```

> #### Serialization
> 
> Old code:
> 
> ```c++
> DynamicJsonBuffer jb;
> JsonObject& obj = jb.createObject();
> obj["key"] = "value";
> obj.printTo(Serial);
> ```
