Constructors

public JArray ()

Creates a new empty instance of JArray.


public JArray (IList sourceValues)

Creates new JArray object from system list or array of objects.

ParameterssourceValuesSource values. Each element have to be either JValue, or any basic c# object that can be changed to JValue.

Indexer

public JValue this [int index]

ValueAny JValue object, can not be null but can be JNull.


Properties
