// Imagine we have two separate JSON objects.
var jsonA = new CkJsonObject();
jsonA.UpdateString("ciphertext","encryptedData");
jsonA.UpdateInt("status",200);
jsonA.UpdateString("error","errorMsg");

jsonA.EmitCompact = false;
console.log(jsonA.Emit());

// jsonA contains:

// {
//   "ciphertext": "encryptedData",
//   "status": 200,
//   "error": "errorMsg"
// }

var jsonB = new CkJsonObject();
jsonB.UpdateString("users[0].role","Surgeon");
jsonB.UpdateNewArray("users[0].sub_roles");
jsonB.UpdateBool("users[0].viewable_for_sharing",true);
jsonB.UpdateInt("users[0].eula_create_date",123);
jsonB.UpdateString("users[1].role","Support");
jsonB.UpdateString("users[1].sub_roles[0]","Tech");
jsonB.UpdateString("users[1].sub_roles[1]","Service");
jsonB.UpdateBool("users[1].viewable_for_sharing",true);
jsonB.UpdateInt("users[1].eula_create_date",123);

jsonB.EmitCompact = false;
console.log(jsonB.Emit());

// jsonB contains:

// {
//   "users": [
//     {
//       "role": "Surgeon",
//       "sub_roles": [],
//       "viewable_for_sharing": true,
//       "eula_create_date": 1649108922482
//     },
//     {
//       "role": "Support",
//       "sub_roles": [
//         "Tech",
//         "Service"
//       ],
//       "viewable_for_sharing": true,
//       "eula_create_date": 1649108951523
//     }
//   ]
// }

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

// {
//   "ciphertext": "encryptedData",
//   "status": 200,
//   "error": "errorMsg",
//   "users": [
//     {
//       "role": "Surgeon",
//       "sub_roles": [],
//       "viewable_for_sharing": true,
//       "eula_create_date": 1649108922482
//     },
//     {
//       "role": "Support",
//       "sub_roles": [
//         "Tech",
//         "Service"
//       ],
//       "viewable_for_sharing": true,
//       "eula_create_date": 1649108951523
//     }
//   ]
// }

// The destination is the empty "users" array, the source is the populated "users" array in jsonB.
var jsonUsersDest = new CkJsonArray();
jsonA.AppendArray2("users",jsonUsersDest);

var jsonUsersSrc = new CkJsonArray();
jsonB.ArrayOf2("users",jsonUsersSrc);

// Copy the array items from source to dest
jsonUsersDest.AppendArrayItems(jsonUsersSrc);

console.log(jsonA.Emit());

// The end result is this:

// {
//   "ciphertext": "encryptedData",
//   "status": 200,
//   "error": "errorMsg",
//   "users": [
//     {
//       "role": "Surgeon",
//       "sub_roles": [
//       ],
//       "viewable_for_sharing": true,
//       "eula_create_date": 123
//     },
//     {
//       "role": "Support",
//       "sub_roles": [
//         "Tech",
//         "Service"
//       ],
//       "viewable_for_sharing": true,
//       "eula_create_date": 123
//     }
//   ]
// }
