See more JSON Examples

Demonstrates renaming and deleting members. This example uses the following JSON document:

{
   "apple": "red",
   "lime": "green",
   "banana": "yellow",
   "broccoli": "green",
   "strawberry": "red"
}

C#

bool success = false;

Chilkat.JsonObject json = new Chilkat.JsonObject();

success = json.Load("{\"apple\": \"red\",\"lime\": \"green\",\"banana\": \"yellow\",\"broccoli\": \"green\",\"strawberry\": \"red\"}");
if (success != true) {
    Debug.WriteLine(json.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Rename "lime" to "lemon".
success = json.Rename("lime","lemon");
// Change the color to yellow:
success = json.SetStringOf("lemon","yellow");

// Rename by index.  Banana is at index 2 (apple is at index 0)
success = json.RenameAt(2,"bartlett_pear");

// Delete broccoli by name
success = json.Delete("broccoli");

// Delete apple by index.  Apple is at index 0.
success = json.DeleteAt(0);

json.EmitCompact = false;
Debug.WriteLine(json.Emit());
