Dim xml As New Chilkat.Xml
Dim success As Boolean

// If autoTrim is True, then the content inside an leaf element is trimmed.
// For example:
Dim autoTrim As Boolean
autoTrim = True
success = xml.LoadXml2("<abc><xyz>  123   </xyz></abc>",autoTrim)
System.DebugLog(xml.GetXml())

// Output is:
// (notice the SPACE chars before and after "xyz" are trimmed)

// <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
// <abc>
//     <xyz>123</xyz>
// </abc>

// If autoTrim is False, then the content inside leaf elements are not trimmed.
autoTrim = False
success = xml.LoadXml2("<abc><xyz>  123   </xyz></abc>",autoTrim)
System.DebugLog(xml.GetXml())

// Output is:

// <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
// <abc>
//     <xyz>  123   </xyz>
// </abc>

// --------------------------------------------------------------------
// The EmitCompact property controls whether XML is emitted indented (pretty-printed)
// or compact.  For example:

// Auto-trim + emit compact:
autoTrim = True
success = xml.LoadXml2("<abc><xyz>  123   </xyz></abc>",autoTrim)
xml.EmitCompact = True
System.DebugLog(xml.GetXml())

// Output is:

// <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
// <abc><xyz>123</xyz></abc>

// No Auto-trim + emit compact:
autoTrim = False
success = xml.LoadXml2("<abc><xyz>  123   </xyz></abc>",autoTrim)
xml.EmitCompact = True
System.DebugLog(xml.GetXml())

// Output is:

// <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
// <abc><xyz>  123   </xyz></abc>
