JSON AppendArrayCopy Example

Demonstrates the AppendArrayCopy function.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.82 or above.

Chilkat2 PHP

<?php

use Chilkat2\JsonArray;
use Chilkat2\JsonObject;

$json = new JsonObject();
$json->Load('{ "name": "John", "marbles": 100 }');

$jarr = new JsonArray();
$jarr->Load('[ 1, 2, 3, "apple", "orange", [ 10, 20, 30 ], { "name": "Alfred"} ]');

// Copy the contents of jar to a new array member named "stuff".
$json->AppendArrayCopy('stuff', $jarr);

echo $json->Emit(), "\n";
// 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:
$jarr->AddIntAt(-1, 2020);
echo $jarr->Emit(), "\n";
// Expected output: [1,2,3,"apple","orange",[10,20,30],{"name":"Alfred"},2020]

echo $json->Emit(), "\n";
// Remains unchanged: {"name":"John","marbles":100,"stuff":[1,2,3,"apple","orange",[10,20,30],{"name":"Alfred"}]}
