CREATE   FUNCTION [dbo].[json_diffObjectArrays] (@SourceJSON NVARCHAR(MAX), @TargetJSON NVARCHAR(MAX), @uniquekey varchar(50) )
/**
Summary: >
  This function 'diffs' a source JSON document with a target JSON document and produces an
  analysis of which properties are missing in either the source or target, or the values
  of these properties that are different. It reports on the properties and values for 
  both source and target as well as the path that references that scalar value. The 
  path reference to the object's parent is exposed in the result to enable a query to
  reference the value of any other object in the parent that is needed.

Revised:
	- mod: Added the parent reference to the difference report

Database: PhilsRoutines
Examples:
   - SELECT * FROM dbo.Compare_JsonObject(@TheSourceJSON, @TheTargetJSON)
       WHERE SideIndicator <> '==';
   - SELECT *, Json_Value(@TheSourceJSON,TheParent+'.name')
       FROM dbo.Compare_JsonObject(@TheSourceJSON, @TheTargetJSON)
       WHERE SideIndicator <> '==';
Returns: >
  SideIndicator:  ( == equal, <- not in target, ->  not in source, <> not equal
  ThePath:   the JSON path used by the SQL JSON functions 
  TheKey:  the key field without the path
  TheSourceValue: the value IN the SOURCE JSON document
  TheTargetValue: the value IN the TARGET JSON document
