Hi guys,

I was using angular 1.3.15 and I had this code:

function getDataRoot(data, expression){
      var getter = $parse(expression);

      return getter(data) || getter.assign(data, {});
}

var data = {details: {orderId: ''}};
console.log(getDataRoot(data, 'details')); // should return: {orderId: ''}
 console.log(getDataRoot(data, 'address')); // should return a new object {}

The function above always returned a value either an existing or a new one object, because getter.assign always returned the value set, now I have upgraded to angular 1.4.4 and getter.assign no longer return anything.

Here is an example, just change the versions and you will see the issue.

Cheers,
Fabián
