    let xml = CkoXml()!

    xml.tag = "animals"

    var autoCreate: Bool = true
    // When the autoCreate argument equals true, the UpdateAt
    // method auto-creates the children as needed:

    xml.update(at: "mammal|rodent|squirrel", autoCreate: autoCreate, value: "bushy tail")
    xml.update(at: "mammal|rodent|rat", autoCreate: autoCreate, value: "long hairless tail")

    // Show the XML
    print("\(xml.getXml()!)")

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

    // Now update each node's content..
