function chilkatExample() {

    var json = new chilkat.JsonObject();
    json.Load("{ \"name\": \"John\", \"marbles\": 100 }");

    var json2 = new chilkat.JsonObject();
    json2.Load("{\"street\":\"1200 Elm St.\",\"city\":\"Springfield\",\"zip\":60606}");

    // Copy the contents of json2 to a new member object named "addr".
    json.AppendObjectCopy("addr",json2);

    console.log(json.Emit());
    // Expected output is:  {"name":"John","marbles":100,"addr":{"street":"1200 Elm St.","city":"Springfield","zip":60606}}

    // Note: Modifying the contents of json does not modify the contents of json2 (because the contents of json2 were copied).
    // For example:
    json.UpdateString("addr.street","1000 Oak St.");
    console.log(json.Emit());
    // Expected output is:  {"name":"John","marbles":100,"addr":{"street":"1000 Oak St.","city":"Springfield","zip":60606}}

    console.log(json2.Emit());
    // Expected output is: {"street":"1200 Elm St.","city":"Springfield","zip":60606}
