Chilkat .NET Downloads Chilkat .NET Assemblies

Add-Type -Path "C:\chilkat\ChilkatDotNet47-9.5.0-x64\ChilkatDotNet47.dll"

$a = New-Object Chilkat.JsonArray
$success = $a.Load("[ 1,2,3,4 ]")

# We could get the JSON array as a string...
$s = $a.Emit()
$($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
$sb = New-Object Chilkat.StringBuilder
$a.EmitSb($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..
$success = $sb.WriteFile("c:/temp/qa_output/a.json","utf-8",$false)
