# This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.64 or greater.

# Loading into a new JSON array is simple and straightforward.
a = chilkat2.JsonArray()
a.Load("[ 1,2,3,4 ]")

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

# 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:

json = chilkat2.JsonObject()
json.Load("{ \"abc\": [ 1,2,3,4 ] }")

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

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

# Output: (abc) [5,6,7,8]
print("(abc) " + abc.Emit())
print("--------")

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