Load a JsonArray

See more JSON Examples

Demonstrates how to load a JsonArray.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.64 or greater.

React Native

import { JsonArray, JsonObject } from '@chilkat/react-native'

function chilkatExample() {
  // This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.64 or greater.

  // Loading into a new JSON array is simple and straightforward.
  const a = new JsonArray();
  a.load('[ 1,2,3,4 ]');

  // Output:  [1,2,3,4]
  console.log(a.emit());
  console.log('--------');

  // The JsonArray's Load and LoadSb methods have a peculiar behavior when
  // it is already part of a JSON document.  In this case, the JsonArray
  // becomes detached, and the original document remains unchanged.
  // This is intentional due to the nature of the internal implementation.
  // For example:

  const json = new JsonObject();
  json.load('{ "abc": [ 1,2,3,4 ] }');

  // Output:  (json) {"abc":[1,2,3,4]}
  console.log(`(json) ${json.emit()}`);
  console.log('--------');

  const abc = json.arrayOf('abc');
  // When Load is called, abc becomes it's own document, and the original is not modified.
  abc.load('[ 5,6,7,8 ]');

  // Output: (abc) [5,6,7,8]
  console.log(`(abc) ${abc.emit()}`);
  console.log('--------');

  // Output: (json) {"abc":[1,2,3,4]}
  console.log(`(json) ${json.emit()}`);
  console.log('--------');
