[YANGTOOLS-1411] JSON codec fails to decode instance-identifier to a choice/case/choice item

Thu, 24 Mar 2022 01:17:00 +0000

With the following model:

module foo {
  namespace foo;
  prefix foo;

  choice foo {
    case bar {
      choice baz {
        leaf xyzzy {
          type string;
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

Attempting to parse "/foo:xyzzy" as an instance-identifier leaf in JSON results in a NullPointerException:
