JavaScript

// This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.63 or greater.

var json = new CkJsonObject();
json.EmitCompact = false;

// The UpdateString method updates or adds a string member.
// It also auto-creates the objects and/or arrays that
// are missing.  For example:
json.UpdateString("test.abc[0].xyz","Chicago Cubs");

// The JSON now contains:
console.log(json.Emit());

// {
//   "test": {
//     "abc": [
//       {
//         "xyz": "Chicago Cubs"
//       }
//     ]
//   }

json.UpdateString("test.abc[0].xyz","Chicago Cubs are going to win the World Series!");
console.log(json.Emit());

// {
//   "test": {
//     "abc": [
//       {
//         "xyz": "Chicago Cubs are going to win the World Series!"
//       }
//     ]
//   }
