rapid JSON fails with Assertion `IsObject()' failed
<p>I am trying to parse the data received from a server with RapidJSON . Following is the exact string that is received:</p>

<pre><code>[
  {
    "Node": "9478149a08f9",
    "Address": "172.17.0.2",
    "ServiceID": "HSS",
    "ServiceName": "HSS",
    "ServiceTags": [],
    "ServiceAddress": "",
    "ServicePort": 6666,
    "ServiceEnableTagOverride": false,
    "CreateIndex": 2855,
    "ModifyIndex": 2855
  }
]
</code></pre>

<p>Following is the code </p>

<pre><code>int main(void)
{
  CURL *curl;
  CURLcode res;

  struct MemoryStruct chunk;

  chunk.memory = (char *)malloc(1);  /* will be grown as needed by the realloc above */
  chunk.size = 0;    /* no data at this point */

  /* In windows, this will init the winsock stuff */
  curl_global_init(CURL_GLOBAL_ALL);

  /* get a curl handle */
  curl = curl_easy_init();
  if(curl) {
    /* First set the URL that is about to receive our POST. This URL can
       just as well be a https:// URL if that is what should receive the
       data. */
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "http://localhost:8500/v1/catalog/service/HSS");
    /* Now specify the POST data */

    // Set the callbackfunction to handle the JSON string
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION, writefunc);
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_WRITEDATA, &amp;chunk);
    /* Perform the request, res will get the return code */
    res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
    /* Check for errors */
    if(res != CURLE_OK)
      fprintf(stderr, "curl_easy_perform() failed: %s\n",
              curl_easy_strerror(res));

    /* always cleanup */
    curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
  }

  std::string str;
  str.assign(chunk.memory,chunk.size);

  cout&lt;&lt;"The string response is :"&lt;&lt;str&lt;&lt;endl;
  Document d;
  d.Parse(str.c_str());

  assert(d.IsObject());
</code></pre>

<p>&lt;-- It fails here</p>

<p>The JSON data is valid but not sure why its still failing. </p>
