If set to RXS_YES, JSON retrieved with RXS_GetJsonString() will be formatted with whitespace to be "pretty" and more human readable. If set to RXS_NO, JSON will be returned in a compact form with as little whitespace as possible.

If set to RXS_JSON_STRUCTURE_OBJECT, the JSON document being created will begin with a root JSON object. If set to RXS_JSON_STRUCTURE_ARRAY, it will begin with a root JSON array.
