Description

The Address object can not be constructed from option maps that have empty strings as values, because of parser errors. (e.g. Address("inbound;

{ key: '' }

").)

The issue is in AddressParser::readString. Going into it, current points to the delimiter. The readChar call moves current up to one past the delimiter. Then definition of start as current++ moves it one further, which is past the closing delimiter of an empty string.
