Dim json As New Chilkat.JsonObject
json.Load("{ ""name"": ""John"", ""marbles"": 100 }")

Dim jarr As New Chilkat.JsonArray
jarr.Load("[ 1, 2, 3, ""apple"", ""orange"", [ 10, 20, 30 ], { ""name"": ""Luther""} ]")

' Copy the contents of jar to a new array member named "stuff".
' Insert the array at the 2nd position
json.AddArrayCopyAt(1,"stuff",jarr)

Debug.WriteLine(json.Emit())
' Expected output is:  {"name":"John","stuff":[1,2,3,"apple","orange",[10,20,30],{"name":"Luther"}],"marbles":100}


' Note: The contents of the array were copied.
' If we modify the contents of jarr, it does not modify the array contained within "json" because it is a separate copy.
' For example:
jarr.AddIntAt(-1,2020)
Debug.WriteLine(jarr.Emit())
' Expected output: [1,2,3,"apple","orange",[10,20,30],{"name":"Luther"},2020]

Debug.WriteLine(json.Emit())
' Remains unchanged: {"name":"John","stuff":[1,2,3,"apple","orange",[10,20,30],{"name":"Luther"}],"marbles":100}
