JSON UpdateString

See more JSON Examples

Demonstrates the JSON object's UpdateString method.

Note: The UpdateString method was introduced in Chilkat v9.5.0.63

VBScript

Dim fso, outFile
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
'Create a Unicode (utf-16) output text file.
Set outFile = fso.CreateTextFile("output.txt", True, True)

' This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.63 or greater.

set json = CreateObject("Chilkat.JsonObject")
json.EmitCompact = 0

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

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

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

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

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

outFile.Close
