' This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.63 or greater.

Dim json As New Chilkat.JsonObject
json.EmitCompact = False

' The UpdateString method updates or adds a string member.
' It also auto-creates the objects and/or arrays that
' are missing.  For example:
json.UpdateString("test.abc[0].xyz","Chicago Cubs")

' The JSON now contains:
Debug.WriteLine(json.Emit())

' {
'   "test": {
'     "abc": [
'       {
'         "xyz": "Chicago Cubs"
'       }
'     ]
'   }


json.UpdateString("test.abc[0].xyz","Chicago Cubs are going to win the World Series!")
Debug.WriteLine(json.Emit())

' {
'   "test": {
'     "abc": [
'       {
'         "xyz": "Chicago Cubs are going to win the World Series!"
'       }
'     ]
'   }
