JsonArray ActiveX Reference Documentation
JsonArray
Current Version: 10.1.0
Represents a JSON array, which contains an ordered list of JSON values, where each value can be a string, number, JSON object, JSON array, true, false, or null.
Object Creation
Note: For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use "Chilkat_9_5_0.JsonArray" instead of "Chilkat.JsonArray" For a specific major version, use "Chilkat.JsonArray.<major_version>", such as "Chilkat.JsonArray.10" for Chilkat v10.*.* See Chilkat ActiveX Object Creation (ASP) set obj = Server.CreateObject("Chilkat.JsonArray") (AutoIt) $obj = ObjCreate("Chilkat.JsonArray") (Visual Basic 6.0) Dim obj As New ChilkatJsonArray (VBScript) set obj = CreateObject("Chilkat.JsonArray") (Delphi) obj := TChilkatJsonArray.Create(Self); (FoxPro) loObject = CreateObject('Chilkat.JsonArray') (PowerBuilder) lole_object = create oleobject li_rc = lole_object.ConnectToNewObject("Chilkat.JsonArray") (SQL Server) EXEC @hr = sp_OACreate 'Chilkat.JsonArray', @obj OUT (Javascript) var obj = new ActiveXObject("Chilkat.JsonArray");
Properties
DebugLogFilePath
If set to a file path, causes each Chilkat method or property call to automatically append it's LastErrorText to the specified log file. The information is appended such that if a hang or crash occurs, it is possible to see the context in which the problem occurred, as well as a history of all Chilkat calls up to the point of the problem. The VerboseLogging property can be set to provide more detailed information.
This property is typically used for debugging the rare cases where a Chilkat method call hangs or generates an exception that halts program execution (i.e. crashes). A hang or crash should generally never happen. The typical causes of a hang are:
- a timeout related property was set to 0 to explicitly indicate that an infinite timeout is desired,
- the hang is actually a hang within an event callback (i.e. it is a hang within the application code), or
- there is an internal problem (bug) in the Chilkat code that causes the hang.
EmitCompact
If 1 then the Emit method outputs in the most compact form possible (a single-line with no extra whitespace). If 0, then emits with whitespace and indentation to make the JSON human-readable.
The default value is 1.
topEmitCrlf
If 1 then the Emit method uses CRLF line-endings when emitting the non-compact (pretty-print) format. If 0, then bare-LF's are emitted. (The compact format emits to a single line with no end-of-line characters.) Windows systems traditionally use CRLF line-endings, whereas Linux, Mac OS X, and other systems traditionally use bare-LF line-endings.
The default value is 1.
topLastBinaryResult
The binary data returned by the last (binary data returning) method called. Only available if Chilkat.Global.KeepBinaryResult is set to 1. This provides a means for obtaining large varbinary results in the SQL Server environment (where limitations exist in getting large amounts of data returned by method calls, but where temp tables can be used for binary properties).
topLastErrorHtml
Provides information in HTML format about the last method/property called. If a method call returns a value indicating failure, or behaves unexpectedly, examine this property to get more information.
topLastErrorText
Provides information in plain-text format about the last method/property called. If a method call returns a value indicating failure, or behaves unexpectedly, examine this property to get more information.
LastErrorXml
Provides information in XML format about the last method/property called. If a method call returns a value indicating failure, or behaves unexpectedly, examine this property to get more information.
topLastMethodSuccess
Indicate whether the last method call succeeded or failed. A value of 1 indicates success, a value of 0 indicates failure. This property is automatically set for method calls. It is not modified by property accesses. The property is automatically set to indicate success for the following types of method calls:
- Any method that returns a string.
- Any method returning a Chilkat object, binary bytes, or a date/time.
- Any method returning a standard boolean status value where success = 1 and failure = 0.
- Any method returning an integer where failure is defined by a return value less than zero.
Note: Methods that do not fit the above requirements will always set this property equal to 1. For example, a method that returns no value (such as a "void" in C++) will technically always succeed.
topLastStringResult
The string return value of the last (string returning) method called. Only available if Chilkat.Global.KeepStringResult is set to 1. This provides a means for obtaining large string results in the SQL Server environment (where limitations exist in getting long strings returned by method calls, but where temp tables can be used for string properties).
LastStringResultLen
The length, in characters, of the string contained in the LastStringResult property.
topSize
The number of JSON values in the array.
topVerboseLogging
If set to 1, then the contents of LastErrorText (or LastErrorXml, or LastErrorHtml) may contain more verbose information. The default value is 0. Verbose logging should only be used for debugging. The potentially large quantity of logged information may adversely affect peformance.
topVersion
Version of the component/library, such as "9.5.0.94"

FindObject
Return the index of the first object in the array where value of the field at name matches value. name is an object member name. The value is a value pattern which can use "*" chars to indicate zero or more of any char. If caseSensitive is 0, then the matching is case insenstive, otherwise it is case sensitive. Returns -1 if no matching string was found.
FindString

Returns 1 for success, 0 for failure.
LoadSb
