    // When getting the member data, it is automatically decoded.
    wprintf(L"member data: %s\n",CkJsonObjectW_stringOf(json,L"example"));

    // Output:
    // member data: בדיק

    // When getting the full JSON, it remains encoded. This is expected and intentional.
    wprintf(L"full JSON: %s\n",CkJsonObjectW_emit(json));

    // Output:
    // full JSON: {"example":"\u05d1\u05d3\u05d9\u05e7"}

    // To get the full JSON without the encoding, you can decode manually.
    sb = CkStringBuilderW_Create();
    CkJsonObjectW_EmitSb(json,sb);
    // The hex encoding used by JSON is utf-8.
    CkStringBuilderW_Decode(sb,L"json",L"utf-8");

    wprintf(L"%s\n",CkStringBuilderW_getAsString(sb));

    // Output:
    // {"example":"בדיק"}
