    // Imagine we have two separate JSON objects.
    CkJsonObject jsonA = new CkJsonObject();
    jsonA.UpdateString("animal","zebra");

    // jsonA contains:

    jsonB.UpdateString("type","mammal");
    jsonB.UpdateBool("carnivore",false);

    jsonB.put_EmitCompact(false);
    System.out.println(jsonB.emit());

    // jsonB contains:

    // {
    //   "type": "mammal",
    //   "carnivore": false
    // }

    // Let's say we want to insert jsonB into jsonA to get this:

    // {
    //   "animal": "zebra",
    //   "info" " {
    //       "type": "mammal",
    //       "carnivore": false

    //   "colors": [
    //     "white",

    //   ]
    // }

    jsonA.AddObjectCopyAt(1,"info",jsonB);

    System.out.println(jsonA.emit());

    // The result is this:

    // {
    //   "animal": "zebra",
    //   "info": {
    //     "type": "mammal",
    //     "carnivore": false
    //   },
    //   "colors": [
    //     "white",
