(PHP ActiveX) JSON UpdateNumber vs UpdateInt

Demonstrates UpdateNumber vs UpdateString.

Chilkat ActiveX Downloads ActiveX for 32-bit and 64-bit Windows Note: The php_com_dotnet.dll may need to be enabled inside of php.ini.

<?php

// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.JsonObject')
$json = new COM("Chilkat.JsonObject");

// If a number is too large for a 32-bit signed integer, then call UpdateNumber instead of UpdateInt.
// The large integer is passed to UpdateNumber as a string, but in the JSON it will be an integer.

// For example:
$json->UpdateNumber('largeNumber','6884556842');

// If the integer is small enough for a 32-bit signed integer, then use UpdateInt:
$json->UpdateInt('reasonableInt',123456);

$json->EmitCompact = 0;
print $json->emit() . "\n";

// The output:
// Notice the large number passed as a string does not have quotes in the JSON

// {
//   "largeNumber": 6884556842,
//   "reasonableInt": 123456
// }
