This patch removes the weird behaviour of jv_invalid_with_msg(jv_null()) that returns jv_invalid() (i.e. empty), instead of a boxed jv_null(). The previous behaviour of null|error was obviously unintentional, and allowing is jv_invalid_with_msg() to return values on which you can't call jv_invalid_get_msg() is only error prone.
jq
jq is a lightweight and flexible command-line JSON processor akin tosed,awk,grep, and friends for JSON data. It's written in portable C and has zero runtime dependencies, allowing you to easily slice, filter, map, and transform structured data.

Building from source
Dependencies
- libtool
- make
- automake
- autoconf
Instructions
git submodule update --init # if building from git to get oniguruma
autoreconf -i # if building from git
./configure --with-oniguruma=builtin
make -j8
make check
sudo make install
Build a statically linked version:
make LDFLAGS=-all-static
If you're not using the latest git version but instead building a released tarball (available on the release page), skip the autoreconf step, and flex or bison won't be needed.
