import chilkat2

# Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.64 or later.
xml = chilkat2.Xml()

xml.Tag = "animals"

autoCreate = True
# When the autoCreate argument equals True, the UpdateAt
# method auto-creates the children as needed:
xml.UpdateAt("penguin",autoCreate,"flightless bird")
xml.UpdateAt("mammal|rodent|squirrel",autoCreate,"bushy tail")
xml.UpdateAt("mammal|rodent|rat",autoCreate,"long hairless tail")

# Show the XML
print(xml.GetXml())

# 	<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
# 	<animals>
# 	    <penguin>flightless bird</penguin>
# 	    <mammal>
# 	        <rodent>
# 	            <squirrel>bushy tail</squirrel>
# 	            <rat>long hairless tail</rat>
# 	        </rodent>
# 	    </mammal>
# 	</animals>

# Now update each node's content..
xml.UpdateAt("penguin",autoCreate,"black and white")
xml.UpdateAt("mammal|rodent|squirrel",autoCreate,"grey, red, or black")
xml.UpdateAt("mammal|rodent|rat",autoCreate,"brown, grey, white, or black")

print(xml.GetXml())

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

# 	    <mammal>
# 	        <rodent>
# 	            <squirrel>grey, red, or black</squirrel>
