Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.64 or later.

C#

// Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.64 or later.
Chilkat.Xml xml = new Chilkat.Xml();

xml.Tag = "animals";

bool autoCreate = true;

// When the autoCreate argument equals true, the UpdateAttrAt
// method auto-creates the children as needed:
xml.UpdateAttrAt("penguin",autoCreate,"feature","flightless bird");
xml.UpdateAttrAt("mammal|rodent|squirrel",autoCreate,"feature","bushy tail");
xml.UpdateAttrAt("mammal|rodent|rat",autoCreate,"feature","long hairless tail");

// Show the XML
Debug.WriteLine(xml.GetXml());

// 	<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
// 	<animals>
// 	    <penguin feature="flightless bird" />
// 	    <mammal>
// 	        <rodent>
// 	            <squirrel feature="bushy tail" />
// 	            <rat feature="long hairless tail" />
// 	        </rodent>
// 	    </mammal>
// 	</animals>
// 

// Now update each node's "feature" attribute..
xml.UpdateAttrAt("penguin",autoCreate,"feature","black and white");
xml.UpdateAttrAt("mammal|rodent|squirrel",autoCreate,"feature","grey, red, or black");
xml.UpdateAttrAt("mammal|rodent|rat",autoCreate,"feature","brown, grey, white, or black");

Debug.WriteLine(xml.GetXml());

// 	<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
// 	<animals>
// 	    <penguin feature="black and white" />
// 	    <mammal>
// 	        <rodent>
// 	            <squirrel feature="grey, red, or black" />
// 	            <rat feature="brown, grey, white, or black" />
// 	        </rodent>
// 	    </mammal>
// 	</animals>
