[Input] Improve handling of YAML null values #897
Conversation
YAML documents containing null values no longer generate errors while parsing. Modify error messages generated by null values to indicate that the error can be caused by either a missing key or a key with no value.

I see that the tests pass, but I'm surprised this isn't raised for key 'c'. Is that a limitation of yaml-cpp?

yaml-cpp correctly converts both the blank value and ~ to null. The difference here is that the exception is raised by asString(), not at("b"). I guess in this sense, the AnyMap class isn't quite a faithful representation of YAML in that in AnyMap, a key with a null value is equivalent to the key not being present, while YAML makes a distinction. Since we don't use null values anywhere in the Cantera YAML format, I'm not sure whether it's worth the extra effort.
