HCkJsonObject json;
HCkJsonArray jarr;
json = CkJsonObject_Create();
CkJsonObject_Load(json,"{ \"name\": \"John\", \"marbles\": 100 }");
jarr = CkJsonArray_Create();
CkJsonArray_Load(jarr,"[ 1, 2, 3, \"apple\", \"orange\", [ 10, 20, 30 ], { \"name\": \"Alfred\"} ]");
// Copy the contents of jar to a new array member named "stuff".
CkJsonObject_AppendArrayCopy(json,"stuff",jarr);
printf("%s\n",CkJsonObject_emit(json));
// Expected output is: {"name":"John","marbles":100,"stuff":[1,2,3,"apple","orange",[10,20,30],{"name":"Alfred"}]}
// 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:
CkJsonArray_AddIntAt(jarr,-1,2020);
printf("%s\n",CkJsonArray_emit(jarr));
// Expected output: [1,2,3,"apple","orange",[10,20,30],{"name":"Alfred"},2020]
printf("%s\n",CkJsonObject_emit(json));
// Remains unchanged: {"name":"John","marbles":100,"stuff":[1,2,3,"apple","orange",[10,20,30],{"name":"Alfred"}]}
