      System.err.println("Native code library failed to load.\n" + e);
      System.exit(1);
    }

    CkXml xml = new CkXml();

    xml.put_Tag("animals");

    boolean 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
    System.out.println(xml.getXml());

    //  	<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
