(Swift 2) JSON: Nested Objects

Here we have a JSON object that contains nested JSON objects. This example demonstrates how to access the contents of the nested objects.

{
  "name": "donut",
  "image":
    {
    "fname": "donut.jpg",
    "w": 200,
    "h": 200
    },
  "thumbnail":
    {
    "fname": "donutThumb.jpg",
    "w": 32,
    "h": 32
    }
}

    // This is the above JSON with whitespace chars removed (SPACE, TAB, CR, and LF chars).
    // The presence of whitespace chars for pretty-printing makes no difference to the Load
    // method. 
    var jsonStr: String? = "{\"name\": \"donut\",\"image\":{\"fname\": \"donut.jpg\",\"w\": 200,\"h\": 200},\"thumbnail\":{\"fname\": \"donutThumb.jpg\",\"w\": 32,\"h\": 32}}"

    if json.LastMethodSuccess == false {
        print("image object not found.")
        return
    }

    print("image: fname=\(imageObj!.StringOf("fname")), width=\(imageObj!.IntOf("w").intValue), height=\(imageObj!.IntOf("h").intValue)")

    imageObj = nil

    // Get the "thumbnail" object.
    var thumbObj: CkoJsonObject? = json.ObjectOf("thumbnail")
