Demonstrates how to write a JSON array to a Chilkat StringBuilder object.

Install Chilkat for Node.js and Electron using npm at Chilkat npm packages for Node.js Chilkat npm packages for Electron on Windows, Linux, MacOSX, and ARM

function chilkatExample() {

    var a = new chilkat.JsonArray();
    var success = a.Load("[ 1,2,3,4 ]");

    // We could get the JSON array as a string...
    var s = a.Emit();
    console.log(s);

    // But what if the JSON array contains a huge amount of data,
    // and we don't want to marshal it all from Chilkat's internal
    // native code to a string in our programming language?

    // You can instead emit to a Chilkat StringBuilder
    var sb = new chilkat.StringBuilder();
    a.EmitSb(sb);

    // Perhaps the StringBuilder object can be passed to other methods..
    // Chilkat typically provides methods where a potentially large string
    // can be passed in via a StringBuilder object..

    // Or perhaps you wish to save to a file..
    success = sb.WriteFile("c:/temp/qa_output/a.json","utf-8",false);
