    // Imagine we have two separate JSON objects.
    var jsonA = new chilkat.JsonObject();
    jsonA.UpdateString("animal","zebra");
    jsonA.UpdateString("colors[0]","white");
    jsonA.UpdateString("colors[1]","black");

    jsonA.EmitCompact = false;
    console.log(jsonA.Emit());

    // jsonA contains:

    // {
    //   "animal": "zebra",
    //   "colors": [
    //     "white",
    //     "black"
    //   ]
    // }

    var jsonB = new chilkat.JsonObject();
    jsonB.UpdateString("type","mammal");
    jsonB.UpdateBool("carnivore",false);

    jsonB.EmitCompact = false;
    console.log(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",
    //     "black"
    //   ]
    // }

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

    console.log(jsonA.Emit());

    // The result is this:

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

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