Is there any way to get which UTF encoding the JSON document is using ?
Thanks in advance

To be honest: I am not sure whether the library works with anything other than UTF8. Did you try?

I didn't. I'm currently using your lib for parsing JSON objects I get from SoundCloud. So far everything workes well. Now I am not sure which encoding they use. My guess probably UTF8

So I checked and I could parse JSON files encoded as UTF-8 (with and without BOM). Unfortunately, I could not find and UTF16 example. So if anyone can provide such a file, I can add a test case.

After some superficial googling, it seems like UTF16 support for C++ is so limited that I shall conclude that I can only make guarantees for UTF8 at the moment.
