set aString = anObject.classToJSON()
set aString = anObject.classToJSON(options)

aString
Target JSON document as String.
options
The optional parameter is an object of type ComposerOptions.

Boolean
When compact is true, the JSON composer will generate compact JSON, otherwise it will generate pretty JSON. The default behavior of classToJson() (i.e. when called without options) is equivalent to compact=false.
true
Generate compact JSON.
false
Generate pretty JSON (default).
keepNulls
Boolean
When keepNulls is true, attributes of anObject with NULL values will be rendered to the JSON object, otherwise they will be left out completely (see also chapter NULL Values). The default behavior of classToJson() (i.e. when called without options) is equivalent to keepNulls=false.
true
Render NULL attributes to the JSON object.
false
Leave out NULL attributes (default).
