require 'chilkat'

# Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.64 or later.
xml = Chilkat::CkXml.new()

xml.put_Tag("aaa")
xml.NewChild2("red|green|blue","sky")

# Show the XML in normal indented (pretty-printed) format:
print xml.getXml() + "\n";

# The output:

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

# Now set the EmitCompact property.
xml.put_EmitCompact(true)

# Show the XML in compact form:
print xml.getXml() + "\n";

# The compact output:

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