Comment 6 for bug 1494796

On the phone, we are using 0.6.0-rc2 of libjsoncpp. Looking at the git repository, the assertion triggers if the node type is not objectValue:

JSON_ASSERT( type_ == nullValue || type_ == objectValue );

The location of this assert matches the line number in the stack trace.

Later versions of libjsoncpp don't assert but throw an exception instead. I suspect that's why we are seeing this only on the phone because, on the desktop, we are using version 0.10.5.

In the get_node() overload for string, we have:

    if (!root_)
    {
        throw unity::LogicException("Current node is empty");
    }

    if (!root_.isMember(node_name))
    {
        throw unity::LogicException("Node " + node_name + " does not exist");
    }
    // ...

I'm pushing a branch that checks the node type before calling isMember() and throws if the node type isn't objectValue. I expect that'll stop the crash.

The question still is why we are trying to get a member from something that isn't an object. Marcus, is this expected?
