jsoncons::semantic_tag::uri incorrectly encoded

[lrosenthol]

The following code:

        std::vector<uint8_t> odata;
        jsoncons::ojson oj(jsoncons::json_object_arg);
        oj.insert_or_assign("timestamp", jsoncons::ojson("05-12-2020", jsoncons::semantic_tag::datetime) );
        oj.insert_or_assign("URL", jsoncons::ojson("http://www.domain.com", jsoncons::semantic_tag::uri) );
        jsoncons::cbor::encode_cbor(oj, odata);
        jsoncons::ojson oj2 = jsoncons::cbor::decode_cbor<jsoncons::ojson>(odata);
        std::cout << "(oj)\n" << pretty_print(oj2) << "\n\n";

produces the following (incorrect) output:

(oj)
{
    "timestamp": "05-12-2020", 
    "URL": -1
}

I have also verified that the encoder is the problem by taking the binary output and putting it into (http://cbor.me) and receiving the same -1 result.

Thanks for reporting. Yes, it's a bug with encoding text strings with semantic tags uri, base64 and base64url into CBOR tags. Fixed on master. Now we have,

std::vector<uint8_t> odata;
jsoncons::ojson oj(jsoncons::json_object_arg);
oj.try_emplace("timestamp", "05-12-2020", jsoncons::semantic_tag::datetime);
oj.try_emplace("URL", "http://www.domain.com", jsoncons::semantic_tag::uri);
jsoncons::cbor::encode_cbor(oj, odata);
jsoncons::ojson oj2 = jsoncons::cbor::decode_cbor<jsoncons::ojson>(odata);
std::cout << "(oj)\n" << pretty_print(oj2) << "\n\n";
std::cout << oj2["timestamp"].as<std::string>() << ", " << oj2["timestamp"].tag() << "\n";
std::cout << oj2["URL"].as<std::string>() << ", " << oj2["URL"].tag() << "\n";

Output:

(oj)
{
    "timestamp": "05-12-2020",
    "URL": "http://www.domain.com"
}

05-12-2020, datetime
http://www.domain.com, uri

Wonderful - thanks for the fast action. Checking it out now.

and somehow missed try_emplace will "try" to use that more...

Fix verified - please consider this closed from my perspective.
