AutoIt
Local $bSuccess = False

$oXml = ObjCreate("Chilkat.Xml")

$bSuccess = $oXml.LoadXml("<abc a=""123"" b=""apple"">Test</abc>")

;  The UpdateAttribute and AddOrUpdateAttribute methods
;  are identical.  Both will replace the attribute's value if it
;  already exists, or insert a new attribute if it does not yet exist.

;  Change the value of attribute "b" to "pear".
$bSuccess = $oXml.UpdateAttribute("b","pear")

;  Because no attribute named "c" exists, UpdateAttribute
;  will create it:
$bSuccess = $oXml.UpdateAttribute("c","orange")

;  If an attribute's value is an integer, the AddToAttribute
;  method may be called to update it by adding an integer value.
;  For example, update the value of "a" to "130" by adding 7.
$oXml.AddToAttribute "a",7

;  Examine the result:
ConsoleWrite($oXml.GetXml() & @CRLF)
