Xojo Plugin

// 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:
Dim success As Boolean
success = json.UpdateString("test.abc[0].xyz","Chicago Cubs")

// The JSON now contains:
System.DebugLog(json.Emit())

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

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

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