(Unicode C++) Get the Root of a JSON Document

Demonstrates how to get back to the JSON root object from anywhere in the JSON document. This example uses the following JSON document:

{
  "flower": "tulip",
  "abc":
    {
    "x": [
       { "a" : 1 },
       { "b1" : 100, "b2" : 200 },
       { "c" : 3 }
    ],
    "y": 200,
    "z": 200
    }
}

        return;

    // Side note: The JSON of a sub-part of the document can be emitted from any JSON object:
    abcObj->put_EmitCompact(false);
    wprintf(L"%s\n",abcObj->emit());

    // Navigate to the "x" array
    CkJsonArrayW *xArray = abcObj->ArrayOf(L"x");
    // We'll skip the null check and assume it's non-null...

    // Navigate to the 2nd object contained within the array.  This contains members b1 and b2
    CkJsonObjectW *bObj = xArray->ObjectAt(1);
    // We'll skip the null check and assume it's non-null...

    // Show that we're at "b1/b2".
    // The value of "b1" should be "200"
    wprintf(L"b2 = %d\n",bObj->IntOf(L"b2"));

    // Now go back to the JSON doc root:
    CkJsonObjectW *docRoot = bObj->GetDocRoot();
    // We'll skip the null check and assume it's non-null...

    // Pretty-print the JSON doc from the root to show that this is indeed the root.
    docRoot->put_EmitCompact(false);
    wprintf(L"%s\n",docRoot->emit());

    delete docRoot;
    delete bObj;
    delete xArray;
    delete abcObj;
    }
