Exception Unhandled out_of_range error

[duojet2ez]

Hello,

Thanks for this library and for answering questions!!

The library was working perfectly when I was working without an IDE. I just brought my files into visual studio and am getting the following error when trying to cout from my .json file:

Unhandled exception at 0x75754402 in Epic Disaster Story.exe: Microsoft C++ exception: nlohmann::detail::out_of_range at memory location 0x009CE6C0. occurred

It takes me to json_sax.hpp and shows the following code where the error occurred:

JSON_THROW(*static_cast<const detail::invalid_iterator*>(&ex));

In my code this occurs when I try:

std::cout << j["pages"][0]["text"]; 

I believe the json file is formatted properly as I had no problems without the IDE...

I would need more information to diagnose this. What is the what() string of the exception? Can you provide a code example?

Same exception in Visual Studio 2019. The error occurred for me when trying to stream into the json directly from an std::fstream. To view the What() string you asked for, I had to use debugging tools.

[json.exception.parse_error.101] parse error at line 115, column 9: syntax error while parsing object - unexpected string literal; expected '}'

Just like duojet2ezz, the json file I am using has no syntax errors, as I have checked it with multiple validators.

Looks like it doesn't like copying and pasting text in the string in the json file... So when I type in my text it works.. but copying it from another document does not.

It's going to be very time consuming to retype reams of text v just copying it to my json file. Is this a known issue and what additional information can I provide you with if it is not? Thanks for all the help!!

Thad is odd. No, this is not a known issue. The library perfectly supports UTF-8 - maybe your editor adds some weird bytes or encoding when copy/pasting? Maybe you can attach a working and non-working file so we can look at the binary diff?

[duojet2ez]

Which files from my project would you like? Just the json... one working and one that does not work?

UPDATE: I think I have narrowed down the problem. It seems the behavior occurs when copying and pasting an apostrophe

UPDATE: And also consecutive periods in a row .....

UPDATE: Copying an apostrophe worked in another context... so now I really don't know.

That sounds like your editor replaces some characters. Which editor do you use?

About the file: Please attach a file that does work if you read it directly, but does not work after copy/pasting.
