<?php

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

$jarr = new COM("Chilkat.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);

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

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