Ruby
require 'chilkat'

xml = Chilkat::CkXml.new()

xml.put_Tag("abc")

# Create a new child  with no content 
# and return the newly created child node:

# childNode is a CkXml
childNode = xml.NewChild("xyz","")

# Create a child under childNode, but instead call
# NewChild2 which doesn't return the newly created child node:
childNode.NewChild2("mmm","123")

print xml.getXml() + "\n";
