(Objective-C) Load JSON Array from HTTP Response Body

Demonstrates how to load the HTTP response body directly into a JsonArray.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.89 or greater because it uses the GetBodyJarr method. Prior to v9.5.0.89, and application would need to first copy the HTTP response body to a Chilkat StringBuilder object by calling GetBodySb, and then load the JsonArray by calling JsonArray.LoadSb.

if (http.LastMethodSuccess == NO) {
    NSLog(@"%@",http.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// A JSON array is JSON that begins with "[" and ends with "]"
CkoJsonArray *jarr = [[CkoJsonArray alloc] init];

// If we wish to transfer (instead of copy) the JSON from the HttpResponse to the JsonArray, then add the keyword "TakeResponseBody" to UncommonOptions
// This could save memory for extremely large JSON responses.
resp.UncommonOptions = @"TakeResponseBody";

[resp GetBodyJarr: jarr];

NSLog(@"%@",[jarr Emit]);

// Note: If UncommonOptions contained "TakeResponseBody", then the response BodyStr will now be empty:
NSLog(@"%@",@"----");
NSLog(@"%@",resp.BodyStr);
