 * The object steals the \a value reference; use ast_json_ref() to safely keep a pointer
 * to it.

Specifically, what I asked was whether or not the reference would still be stolen if json_object_set fails. His response was that he believes this to be the case, and if not that we should adjust ast_json_object_set so that if json_object_set fails and it doesn&#39;t take the reference that we take the reference away anyway.

Anyway, what I&#39;m getting is that for the json_string here, bumping the ref count after doing ast_json_object_set strikes me as technically incorrect. Yes, the reference should still be valid as long as ast_json_object_set succeeded, but it isn&#39;t valid through the json_string pointer.

In truth though, the way I&#39;m using ast_json_object_set around here, it just isn&#39;t necessary to hold onto that reference anyway. My line of thinking here was that I should keep a reference for when the function exits because of RAII_VAR, but according to David json_decref is tolerant to NULL pointers anyway.

I&#39;m doing away with RAII_VAR for the json_strings since their only purpose ever is to be created and then immediately shoved in the json object. There are only two sides to the operation. If it fails on the string creation side, we didn&#39;t get a reference to the string so there is no need to unref. If it fails on the object set side then the reference was already taken.

I&#39;ll add a short note about that in comments for the more elaborate function with multiple sets since it isn&#39;t explicitly clear.</pre>
