Value method with undocumented throwing 302 exception

[lohmanndouglas]

I am using value function and I did not figure out if this should be the correct behavior according to the documentation.

The following code terminate called after throwing an instance of [json.exception.type_error.302] type must be string, but is number.

Should I add this throwing to the docs?

int main() 
{
    json json_types =
    {
        {"MyString", "Hello, world!"},
        {"MyInt", 123}
    };   
    std::string string_id;
    json_types.value("MyInt", string_id);
}

You're right. The documentation (https://nlohmann.github.io/json/classnlohmann_1_1basic__json_adcf8ca5079f5db993820bf50036bf45d.html#adcf8ca5079f5db993820bf50036bf45d) only mentions the 306 exception.
