Load a JSON Array

See more JSON Examples

The Chilkat JSON API requires the top-level JSON to be an object. Therefore, to load an array requires that it first be wrapped as an object. B4X

Dim success As Boolean = False

'  Imagine we want to load this JSON array for parsing:
Dim jsonArrayStr As String = "[{" & Chr(34) & "id" & Chr(34) & ":200},{" & Chr(34) & "id" & Chr(34) & ":196}]"

'  First wrap it in a JSON object by prepending "{ "array":" and appending "}"
Dim sbJson As ChilkatStringBuilder
sbJson.Initialize
sbJson.Append("{" & Chr(34) & "array" & Chr(34) & ":")
sbJson.Append(jsonArrayStr)
sbJson.Append("}")

Dim json As ChilkatJsonObject
json.Initialize
json.Load(sbJson.GetAsString)

'  Now we can get the JSON array
Dim jArray As ChilkatJsonArray = json.ArrayAt(0)

'  Do what you want with the JSON array...
'  For example:
Dim jObjId As ChilkatJsonObject = jArray.ObjectAt(0)
Log(jObjId.IntOf("id"))
