Sometimes you have data as a DataFlex struct, but need it in JSON format.

The code below gives an example on how-to change your data format so that it is available as JSON. 

Handle hoJson
UChar[] ucaJson
Integer iChn
tYourDataType tYourStructVar

Get Create (RefClass(cJsonObject)) to hoJson
Get DataTypeToJson of hoJson tYourStructVar
Get StringifyUTF8 of hoJson to ucaJson
Get Seq_New_Channel to iChn
Direct_Output channel iChn {filename}
Write channel iChn ucaJson
Close_Output
Send Seq_Release_Channel iChn
