    //       "eula_create_date": 1649108922482

    //       "role": "Support",
    //       "sub_roles": [
    //         "Tech",
    //         "Service"
    //       ],
    //       "viewable_for_sharing": true,
    //       "eula_create_date": 1649108951523
    //     }
    //   ]
    // }

    // The destination is the empty "users" array, the source is the populated "users" array in jsonB.
    CkJsonArrayW jsonUsersDest;
    jsonA.AppendArray2(L"users",jsonUsersDest);

    CkJsonArrayW jsonUsersSrc;
    jsonB.ArrayOf2(L"users",jsonUsersSrc);

    // Copy the array items from source to dest
    jsonUsersDest.AppendArrayItems(jsonUsersSrc);

    wprintf(L"%s\n",jsonA.emit());

    // The end result is this:
