JSON UpdateString

See more JSON Examples

Demonstrates the JSON object's UpdateString method.

Note: The UpdateString method was introduced in Chilkat v9.5.0.63

Swift

func chilkatTest() {
    // This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.63 or greater.

    let json = CkoJsonObject()!
    json.emitCompact = false

    // The UpdateString method updates or adds a string member.
    // It also auto-creates the objects and/or arrays that
    // are missing.  For example:
    json.updateString(jsonPath: "test.abc[0].xyz", value: "Chicago Cubs")

    // The JSON now contains:
    print("\(json.emit()!)")

    // {
    //   "test": {
    //     "abc": [
    //       {
    //         "xyz": "Chicago Cubs"
    //       }
    //     ]
    //   }

    json.updateString(jsonPath: "test.abc[0].xyz", value: "Chicago Cubs are going to win the World Series!")
    print("\(json.emit()!)")

    // {
    //   "test": {
    //     "abc": [
    //       {
    //         "xyz": "Chicago Cubs are going to win the World Series!"
    //       }
    //     ]
    //   }
