LOCAL loJson
LOCAL loJarr

* For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject('Chilkat_9_5_0.JsonObject')
loJson = CreateObject('Chilkat.JsonObject')
loJson.Load('{ "name": "John", "marbles": 100 }')

* For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject('Chilkat_9_5_0.JsonArray')
loJarr = CreateObject('Chilkat.JsonArray')
loJarr.Load('[ 1, 2, 3, "apple", "orange", [ 10, 20, 30 ], { "name": "Alfred"} ]')

* Copy the contents of jar to a new array member named "stuff".
loJson.AppendArrayCopy("stuff",loJarr)

? loJson.Emit()
* Expected output is:  {"name":"John","marbles":100,"stuff":[1,2,3,"apple","orange",[10,20,30],{"name":"Alfred"}]}

* Note: The contents of the array were copied.
* If we modify the contents of jarr, it does not modify the array contained within "json" because it is a separate copy.
* For example:
loJarr.AddIntAt(-1,2020)
? loJarr.Emit()
* Expected output: [1,2,3,"apple","orange",[10,20,30],{"name":"Alfred"},2020]

? loJson.Emit()
* Remains unchanged: {"name":"John","marbles":100,"stuff":[1,2,3,"apple","orange",[10,20,30],{"name":"Alfred"}]}
