<?php

//  Imagine we have two separate JSON objects.
$jsonA = new COM("Chilkat.JsonObject");
$jsonA->UpdateString('ciphertext','encryptedData');
$jsonA->UpdateInt('status',200);
$jsonA->UpdateString('error','errorMsg');

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

//  jsonA contains:

//  {
//    "ciphertext": "encryptedData",
//    "status": 200,
//    "error": "errorMsg"
//  }

$jsonB = new COM("Chilkat.JsonObject");
$jsonB->UpdateString('users[0].role','Surgeon');
$jsonB->UpdateNewArray('users[0].sub_roles');
$jsonB->UpdateBool('users[0].viewable_for_sharing',1);
$jsonB->UpdateInt('users[0].eula_create_date',123);
$jsonB->UpdateString('users[1].role','Support');
$jsonB->UpdateString('users[1].sub_roles[0]','Tech');
$jsonB->UpdateString('users[1].sub_roles[1]','Service');
$jsonB->UpdateBool('users[1].viewable_for_sharing',1);
$jsonB->UpdateInt('users[1].eula_create_date',123);

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

//  jsonB contains:

//  {
//    "users": [
//      {
//        "role": "Surgeon",
//        "sub_roles": [],
//        "viewable_for_sharing": true,
//        "eula_create_date": 1649108922482
//      },
//      {
//        "role": "Support",
//        "sub_roles": [
//          "Tech",
//          "Service"
//        ],
//        "viewable_for_sharing": true,
//        "eula_create_date": 1649108951523
//      }
//    ]
//  }

//  Let's say we want to insert jsonB into jsonA to get this:

//  {
//    "ciphertext": "encryptedData",
//    "status": 200,
//    "error": "errorMsg",
//    "users": [
//      {
//        "role": "Surgeon",
//        "sub_roles": [],
//        "viewable_for_sharing": true,
//        "eula_create_date": 1649108922482
//      },
//      {
//        "role": "Support",
//        "sub_roles": [
//          "Tech",
//          "Service"
//        ],
//        "viewable_for_sharing": true,
//        "eula_create_date": 1649108951523
//      }
//    ]
//  }

//  The destination is the empty "users" array, the source is the populated "users" array in jsonB.
$jsonUsersDest = new COM("Chilkat.JsonArray");
$jsonA->AppendArray2('users',$jsonUsersDest);

$jsonUsersSrc = new COM("Chilkat.JsonArray");
$jsonB->ArrayOf2('users',$jsonUsersSrc);

//  Copy the array items from source to dest
$jsonUsersDest->AppendArrayItems($jsonUsersSrc);

print $jsonA->emit() . "\n";

//  The end result is this:

//  {
//    "ciphertext": "encryptedData",
//    "status": 200,
//    "error": "errorMsg",
//    "users": [
//      {
//        "role": "Surgeon",
//        "sub_roles": [
//        ],
//        "viewable_for_sharing": true,
//        "eula_create_date": 123
//      },
//      {
//        "role": "Support",
//        "sub_roles": [
//          "Tech",
//          "Service"
//        ],
//        "viewable_for_sharing": true,
//        "eula_create_date": 123
//      }
//    ]
//  }
