Another example showing how to build JSON containing a mixture of arrays and objects. Lua

local chilkat = require("chilkat")

-- We want to build the following JSON:

--     }
--   ],
--   "assignedPlans": [
--     {
--       "assignedDateTime": "datetime-value",
--       "capabilityStatus": "capabilityStatus-value",
--       "service": "service-value",
--       "servicePlanId": "bea13e0c-3828-4daa-a392-28af7ff61a0f"

--   ],
--   "businessPhones": [
--     "businessPhones-value"
--   ],
--   "city": "city-value",
--   "companyName": "companyName-value"

local json = chilkat.JsonObject.new()
