Emit JSON Array to StringBuilder

See more JSON Examples

Demonstrates how to write a JSON array to a Chilkat StringBuilder object. PowerBuilder

integer li_rc
long li_Success
oleobject a
string s
oleobject loo_Sb

li_Success = 0

a = create oleobject
li_rc = a.ConnectToNewObject("Chilkat.JsonArray")
if li_rc < 0 then
    destroy a
    MessageBox("Error","Connecting to COM object failed")
    return
end if
li_Success = a.Load("[ 1,2,3,4 ]")

//  We could get the JSON array as a string...
s = a.Emit()
Write-Debug s

//  But what if the JSON array contains a huge amount of data,
//  and we don't want to marshal it all from Chilkat's internal
//  native code to a string in our programming language?

//  You can instead emit to a Chilkat StringBuilder
loo_Sb = create oleobject
li_rc = loo_Sb.ConnectToNewObject("Chilkat.StringBuilder")

a.EmitSb(loo_Sb)

//  Perhaps the StringBuilder object can be passed to other methods..
//  Chilkat typically provides methods where a potentially large string
//  can be passed in via a StringBuilder object..

//  Or perhaps you wish to save to a file..
li_Success = loo_Sb.WriteFile("c:/temp/qa_output/a.json","utf-8",0)
