Chilkat Perl Downloads Perl Module for Windows, MacOS, Linux, Alpine Linux, Solaris

use chilkat();

$json = chilkat::CkJsonObject->new();
$json->Load("{ \"name\": \"John\", \"marbles\": 100 }");

$json2 = chilkat::CkJsonObject->new();
$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);

print $json->emit() . "\r\n";
# 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.");
print $json->emit() . "\r\n";
# Expected output is:  {"name":"John","marbles":100,"addr":{"street":"1000 Oak St.","city":"Springfield","zip":60606}}

print $json2->emit() . "\r\n";
# Expected output is: {"street":"1200 Elm St.","city":"Springfield","zip":60606}
