Insert JSON Object into another JSON Object

See more JSON Examples

Demonstrates how to insert one JSON object into another. Effectively, the JSON object must be copied into the other.. .NET Core C#

// Imagine we have two separate JSON objects.
Chilkat.JsonObject jsonA = new Chilkat.JsonObject();
jsonA.UpdateString("animal","zebra");
jsonA.UpdateString("colors[0]","white");
jsonA.UpdateString("colors[1]","black");

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

// jsonA contains:

// {
//   "animal": "zebra",
//   "colors": [
//     "white",
//     "black"
//   ]
// }

Chilkat.JsonObject jsonB = new Chilkat.JsonObject();
jsonB.UpdateString("type","mammal");
jsonB.UpdateBool("carnivore",false);

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

// jsonB contains:

// {
//   "type": "mammal",
//   "carnivore": false
// }

// Let's say we want to insert jsonB into jsonA to get this:

// {
//   "animal": "zebra",
//   "info" " {
//       "type": "mammal",
//       "carnivore": false
// 	},
//   "colors": [
//     "white",
//     "black"
//   ]
// }

jsonA.AddObjectCopyAt(1,"info",jsonB);

Debug.WriteLine(jsonA.Emit());

// The result is this:

// {
//   "animal": "zebra",
//   "info": {
//     "type": "mammal",
//     "carnivore": false
//   },
//   "colors": [
//     "white",
//     "black"
//   ]
// }
