require 'chilkat'

success = false

arr = Chilkat::CkJsonArray.new()

obj = Chilkat::CkJsonObject.new()

# Create a new and empty JSON object in the 1st position of the JSON array 
# and return the reference in the last argument.
arr.AddObjectAt2(0,obj)
obj.UpdateString("Name","Otto")
obj.UpdateInt("Age",29)
obj.UpdateBool("Married",false)

# Create a new and empty JSON object in the 2nd position of the JSON array 
# and return the reference in the last argument.
arr.AddObjectAt2(1,obj)
obj.UpdateString("Name","Connor")
obj.UpdateInt("Age",43)
obj.UpdateBool("Married",true)

# Create a new and empty JSON object in the 3rd position of the JSON array 
# and return the reference in the last argument.
arr.AddObjectAt2(2,obj)
obj.UpdateString("Name","Ramona")
obj.UpdateInt("Age",34)
obj.UpdateBool("Married",true)

# Examine what we have:
arr.put_EmitCompact(false)
print arr.emit() + "\n";

# The output is:

# [
#   {
#     "Name": "Otto",
#     "Age": 29,
#     "Married": false
#   },
#   {
#     "Name": "Connor",
#     "Age": 43,
#     "Married": true
#   },
#   {
#     "Name": "Ramona",
#     "Age": 34,
#     "Married": true
