NLOHMANN_DEFINE_TYPE_INTRUSIVE with nlohmann::json::json_pointer

[risa2000]

Description

Using NLOHMANN_DEFINE_TYPE_INTRUSIVE (or non-intrusive) macro to define conversions for struct with nlohmann::json::json_pointer member fails to compile (MSVC v19.3 - VS 2022), with or without explicit conversion.

Reproduction steps

Compile the sample code.
Here is a Godbolt link https://godbolt.org/z/fdrPrcT7T

Expected vs. actual results

Expecting it will compile.

Minimal code example

#include <nlohmann/json.hpp>
#include <fmt/format.h>
#include <string>

inline void to_json(nlohmann::json& j, const nlohmann::json::json_pointer& crj)
{
    j = nlohmann::json(crj.to_string());
}

inline void from_json(const nlohmann::json& cj, nlohmann::json::json_pointer& rj)
{
    rj = nlohmann::json::json_pointer(cj.get<std::string>());
}

struct Test {
    nlohmann::json::json_pointer ptr;
//    std::string ptr;
    nlohmann::json value;
    NLOHMANN_DEFINE_TYPE_INTRUSIVE(Test, ptr, value);
};

// Type your code here, or load an example.
int main() {
    Test test{nlohmann::json::json_pointer("/test"), 10};
    nlohmann::json jtest = test;
    fmt::print("jtest={}\n", jtest.dump());
}
