Add-Type -Path "C:\chilkat\ChilkatDotNet47-x64\ChilkatDotNet47.dll"

$json = New-Object Chilkat.JsonObject
$json.Load("{ `"name`": `"John`", `"marbles`": 100 }")

$jarr = New-Object Chilkat.JsonArray
$jarr.Load("[ 1, 2, 3, `"apple`", `"orange`", [ 10, 20, 30 ], { `"name`": `"Luther`"} ]")

# Copy the contents of jar to a new array member named "stuff".
# Insert the array at the 2nd position
$json.AddArrayCopyAt(1,"stuff",$jarr)

$($json.Emit())
# Expected output is:  {"name":"John","stuff":[1,2,3,"apple","orange",[10,20,30],{"name":"Luther"}],"marbles":100}

# Note: The contents of the array were copied.
# If we modify the contents of jarr, it does not modify the array contained within "json" because it is a separate copy.
# For example:
$jarr.AddIntAt(-1,2020)
$($jarr.Emit())
# Expected output: [1,2,3,"apple","orange",[10,20,30],{"name":"Luther"},2020]

$($json.Emit())
# Remains unchanged: {"name":"John","stuff":[1,2,3,"apple","orange",[10,20,30],{"name":"Luther"}],"marbles":100}
