    // The UpdateString method updates or adds a string member.
    // It also auto-creates the objects and/or arrays that
    // are missing.  For example:
    json.UpdateString("test.abc[0].xyz","Chicago Cubs");

    // The JSON now contains:
    Log.i(TAG, json.emit());

    // {
    //   "test": {
    //     "abc": [
    //       {
    //         "xyz": "Chicago Cubs"
    //       }
