// Loading into a new JSON array is simple and straightforward.
a = createobject("CkJsonArray")
a.Load("[ 1,2,3,4 ]")

// Output:  [1,2,3,4]
? a.Emit()
? "--------"

// The JsonArray's Load and LoadSb methods have a peculiar behavior when
// it is already part of a JSON document.  In this case, the JsonArray
// becomes detached, and the original document remains unchanged.
// This is intentional due to the nature of the internal implementation.
// For example:

loJson = createobject("CkJsonObject")
loJson.Load('{ "abc": [ 1,2,3,4 ] }')

// Output:  (json) {"abc":[1,2,3,4]}
? "(json) " + loJson.Emit()
? "--------"

loAbc = loJson.ArrayOf("abc")
// When Load is called, abc becomes it's own document, and the original is not modified.
loAbc.Load("[ 5,6,7,8 ]")

// Output: (abc) [5,6,7,8]
? "(abc) " + loAbc.Emit()
? "--------"

// Output: (json) {"abc":[1,2,3,4]}
? "(json) " + loJson.Emit()
? "--------"
