<?php

include("chilkat.php");

$success = false;

$http = new CkHttp();

$resp = new CkHttpResponse();
$success = $http->HttpStr('GET','https://www.chilkatsoft.com/exampledata/sampleArray.json','','','',$resp);
if ($success == false) {
    print $http->lastErrorText() . "\n";
    exit;
}

// A JSON array is JSON that begins with "[" and ends with "]"
$jarr = new CkJsonArray();

// If we wish to transfer (instead of copy) the JSON from the HttpResponse to the JsonArray, then add the keyword "TakeResponseBody" to UncommonOptions
// This could save memory for extremely large JSON responses.
$resp->put_UncommonOptions('TakeResponseBody');

$resp->GetBodyJarr($jarr);

print $jarr->emit() . "\n";

// Note: If UncommonOptions contained "TakeResponseBody", then the response BodyStr will now be empty:
print '----' . "\n";
print $resp->bodyStr() . "\n";
