Description

Returns the string representation of the JSON object.

There are two overloaded methods:

• The function ToJSON(Options: TJSONOutputOptions): string: returns the string representation of the JSON object.

Characters may be encoded using "\uNNNN" format when Options include:

• EncodeAbove127 - non-ASCII characters (above ASCII 127) are encoded

• EncodeBelow32 - low ASCII characters (below ASCII 32) are encoded

Special characters like a quote, backslash, tab, new-line, line-feed, etc., are encoded using the "\C" format.

• The function ToJSON: string; overload; returns the string representation of the JSON object.

Non-ASCII characters (above ASCII 127) and low ASCII characters (below ASCII 32) are encoded using the "\uNNNN" format.

Special characters like a quote, backslash, tab, new-line, line-feed, etc., are encoded using the "\C" format.

The string returned by .ToJSON is more useful for transport purposes because it contains only ASCII characters. All low-ASCII characters and extended characters in UTF-8 sequences are encoded as printable ASCII characters.

The string is double-quoted.
