JsonArray Perl Reference Documentation
CkJsonArray
Current Version: 10.1.2
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
$obj = chilkat::CkJsonArray->new();
Properties
DebugLogFilePath
# $ckStr is a CkString
$jsonArray->get_DebugLogFilePath($ckStr);
$strVal = $jsonArray->debugLogFilePath();
$jsonArray->put_DebugLogFilePath($strVal);
If set to a file path, this property logs the LastErrorText of each Chilkat method or property call to the specified file. This logging helps identify the context and history of Chilkat calls leading up to any crash or hang, aiding in debugging.
Enabling the VerboseLogging property provides more detailed information. This property is mainly used for debugging rare instances where a Chilkat method call causes a hang or crash, which should generally not happen.
Possible causes of hangs include:
- A timeout property set to 0, indicating an infinite timeout.
- A hang occurring within an event callback in the application code.
- An internal bug in the Chilkat code causing the hang.
EmitCompact
$boolVal = $jsonArray->get_EmitCompact();
$jsonArray->put_EmitCompact($boolVal);
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
$boolVal = $jsonArray->get_EmitCrlf();
$jsonArray->put_EmitCrlf($boolVal);
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.
topLastErrorHtml
# $ckStr is a CkString
$jsonArray->get_LastErrorHtml($ckStr);
$strVal = $jsonArray->lastErrorHtml();
Provides HTML-formatted information about the last called method or property. If a method call fails or behaves unexpectedly, check this property for details. Note that information is available regardless of the method call's success.
topLastErrorText
# $ckStr is a CkString
$jsonArray->get_LastErrorText($ckStr);
$strVal = $jsonArray->lastErrorText();
Provides plain text information about the last called method or property. If a method call fails or behaves unexpectedly, check this property for details. Note that information is available regardless of the method call's success.
LastErrorXml
# $ckStr is a CkString
$jsonArray->get_LastErrorXml($ckStr);
$strVal = $jsonArray->lastErrorXml();
Provides XML-formatted information about the last called method or property. If a method call fails or behaves unexpectedly, check this property for details. Note that information is available regardless of the method call's success.
topLastMethodSuccess
$boolVal = $jsonArray->get_LastMethodSuccess();
$jsonArray->put_LastMethodSuccess($boolVal);
Indicates the success or failure of the most recent method call: 1 means success, 0 means failure. This property remains unchanged by property setters or getters. This method is present to address challenges in checking for null or Nothing returns in certain programming languages.
topSize
$intVal = $jsonArray->get_Size();
The number of JSON values in the array.
topUtf8
$boolVal = $jsonArray->get_Utf8();
$jsonArray->put_Utf8($boolVal);
When set to 1, all "const char *" arguments are interpreted as utf-8 strings. If set to 0 (the default), then "const char *" arguments are interpreted as ANSI strings. Also, when set to 1, and Chilkat method returning a "const char *" is returning the utf-8 representation. If set to 0, all "const char *" return values are ANSI strings.
topVerboseLogging
$boolVal = $jsonArray->get_VerboseLogging();
$jsonArray->put_VerboseLogging($boolVal);
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
# $ckStr is a CkString
$jsonArray->get_Version($ckStr);
$strVal = $jsonArray->version();
