in operator confusing behavior

[alecxe]

May be it is just me not understanding something obvious, but why this cannot find a substring in string:

>>> import objectpath
>>> tree = objectpath.Tree({'doc': {'title': 'Purple is Best Color'}})
>>> list(tree.execute('$..*["Purple" in @.title]'))
[]

But, explicitly converting the substring to string with str() works:

>>> list(tree.execute('$..*[str("Purple") in @.title]'))
[{'title': 'Purple is Best Color'}]

Is this a bug or an intended behavior? Thanks!

A bug. It's fixed now, but it may break rare queries. If you encounter anything that I've broken by this hotfix let me know! The fix is available through github (git clone https://github.com/adriank/ObjectPath.git).

If you have any other questions re ObjectPath, let me know!
