// Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.64 or later.
loo_Xml = create oleobject
li_rc = loo_Xml.ConnectToNewObject("Chilkat.Xml")
if li_rc < 0 then
    destroy loo_Xml
    MessageBox("Error","Connecting to COM object failed")
    return
end if

loo_Xml.Tag = "aaa"
loo_Xml.NewChild2("red|green|blue","sky")

// Show the XML in normal indented (pretty-printed) format:
Write-Debug loo_Xml.GetXml()

// The output:

// 	<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
// 	<aaa>
// 	    <red>
// 	        <green>
// 	            <blue>sky</blue>
// 	        </green>
// 	    </red>
// 	</aaa>

// Now set the EmitCompact property.
loo_Xml.EmitCompact = 1

// Show the XML in compact form:
Write-Debug loo_Xml.GetXml()

// The compact output:

// 	<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
// 	<aaa><red><green><blue>sky</blue></green></red></aaa>
//
