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

    var json = new chilkat.JsonObject();
    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!"
    //        }
    //      ]
