Load JSON Data at Path

See more JSON Examples

Demonstrates how to load JSON data into a path within a JSON database. For example, we begin with this JSON:
{
  "a": 1,
  "b": 2,
  "c": {
    "x": 1,
    "y": 2
  }
}
Then we load {"mm": 11, "nn": 22} to "c", and the result is this JSON:
{
  "a": 1,
  "b": 2,
  "c": {
    "mm": 11,
    "nn": 22
  }
}

# Demonstrates how to load replace the data at a location within a JSON database.

p = "{\"a\": 1, \"b\": 2, \"c\": { \"x\": 1, \"y\": 2 } }"

json = Chilkat::CkJsonObject.new()
json.Load(p)
json.put_EmitCompact(false)
print json.emit() + "\n";

q = "{\"mm\": 11, \"nn\": 22}"

c = Chilkat::CkJsonObject.new()
json.ObjectOf2("c",c)
c.Load(q)

# See that x and y are replaced with mm and nn.
print json.emit() + "\n";
