;  Loading into a new JSON array is simple and straightforward.
$oA = ObjCreate("Chilkat.JsonArray")
$oA.Load("[ 1,2,3,4 ]")

;  Output:  [1,2,3,4]
ConsoleWrite($oA.Emit() & @CRLF)
ConsoleWrite("--------" & @CRLF)

;  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:

$oJson = ObjCreate("Chilkat.JsonObject")
$oJson.Load("{ ""abc"": [ 1,2,3,4 ] }")

;  Output:  (json) {"abc":[1,2,3,4]}
ConsoleWrite("(json) " & $oJson.Emit() & @CRLF)
ConsoleWrite("--------" & @CRLF)

Local $oAbc = $oJson.ArrayOf("abc")
;  When Load is called, abc becomes it's own document, and the original is not modified.
$oAbc.Load("[ 5,6,7,8 ]")

;  Output: (abc) [5,6,7,8]
ConsoleWrite("(abc) " & $oAbc.Emit() & @CRLF)
ConsoleWrite("--------" & @CRLF)

;  Output: (json) {"abc":[1,2,3,4]}
ConsoleWrite("(json) " & $oJson.Emit() & @CRLF)
ConsoleWrite("--------" & @CRLF)
