// This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

let xmp = chilkat::Xmp::new();

// The first step is to create a new XMP document, which is nothing
// more than XML.  The NewXmp method returns an XML document with
// the standard XMP boilerplate.  
let xml = xmp.new_xmp().unwrap();

// Add some properties...
let _ = xmp.add_simple_str(&xml, "Iptc4xmpCore:Chilkat", "Blah blah").is_ok();
// If you wish to view the XML, save it to a file and review it
// with a text editor:
if xml.save_xml("newXmp.xml").is_err() {
    println!("{}", xml.last_error_text());
    return;
}

// To add the XMP to the JPG (or TIFF), simply load the JPG,
// append the XMP, and save:
if xmp.load_app_file("scream.jpg").is_err() {
    println!("{}", xmp.last_error_text());
    return;
}

if xmp.append(&xml).is_err() {
    println!("{}", xmp.last_error_text());
    return;
}

if xmp.save_app_file("screamOut.jpg").is_err() {
    println!("{}", xmp.last_error_text());
    return;
