Encode the JSON representation of the specified `value` to the specified JSON `formatter`, according to the specified `formattingMode`. If the representation contains no text, load the value `true` into `isValueEmpty` and the value `false` otherwise. If the specified `isFirstMember` option is `true`, then the representation of the value contains no leading sequence delimiter, and does contain such a delimiter if the remaining representation is non‐empty otherwise. Use the specified `options` to configure aspects of the JSON representation of the `value`. If this operation is not successful, load an unspecified, human‐readable description of the error condition to the specified `logStream`. Return 0 on success, and a non‐zero value otherwise. The behavior is undefined unless the specified `TYPE` satisfies both the static and dynamic requirements of one of the `bdlat` type‐category concepts. See `baljsn_encoderoptions` for a description of the effects, if any, of each option in the `options` on the JSON representation of the `value`. See the package‐level documentation of `bdlat` for an introduction to the requirements of `bdlat` type‐category concepts.
