Description
Description how to reproduce the bug
JSON parser infers parameter data type from its value. This among other things will cause that floating point parameter is interpreted as integer if it is entered without decimal point in the input file. Retrieving this parameter as a floating point type will then cause an exception to be throw:
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::bad_variant_access'
Abort trap: 6
Possible solutions are
- to interpret every parameter as the floating point number
- have separate enums for real, integer and boolean parameters.
