}

CkPython

import sys
import chilkat

success = False

json = chilkat.CkJsonObject()

success = json.Load("{\"apple\": \"red\",\"lime\": \"green\",\"banana\": \"yellow\",\"broccoli\": \"green\",\"strawberry\": \"red\"}")
if (success != True):
    print(json.lastErrorText())
    sys.exit()

# Rename "lime" to "lemon".
success = json.Rename("lime","lemon")
# Change the color to yellow:
success = json.SetStringOf("lemon","yellow")

# Rename by index.  Banana is at index 2 (apple is at index 0)
success = json.RenameAt(2,"bartlett_pear")

# Delete broccoli by name
success = json.Delete("broccoli")

# Delete apple by index.  Apple is at index 0.
success = json.DeleteAt(0)
