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

    //  An HTTP SOAP request is an HTTP request where the SOAP XML composes the body.
    //  This example demonstrates how to add a WS-Security header such as the following:
    //  
    //  <wsse:UsernameToken xmlns:wsu="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-utility-1.0.xsd" wsu:Id="SecurityToken-6138db82-5a4c-4bf7-915f-af7a10d9ae96">
    //    <wsse:Username>user</wsse:Username>
    //    <wsse:Password Type="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-username-token-profile-1.0#PasswordDigest">CBb7a2itQDgxVkqYnFtggUxtuqk=</wsse:Password>
    //    <wsse:Nonce>5ABcqPZWb6ImI2E6tob8MQ==</wsse:Nonce>
    //    <wsu:Created>2010-06-08T07:26:50Z</wsu:Created>
    //  </wsse:UsernameToken>
    //  

    //  First build some simple SOAP XML that has some header and body.
    var xml = new chilkat.Xml();
    xml.Tag = "env:Envelope";
    xml.AddAttribute("xmlns:env","http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope");
    xml.UpdateAttrAt("env:Header|n:alertcontrol",true,"xmlns:n","http://example.org/alertcontrol");
    xml.UpdateChildContent("env:Header|n:alertcontrol|n:priority","1");
    xml.UpdateChildContent("env:Header|n:alertcontrol|n:expires","2001-06-22T14:00:00-05:00");
    xml.UpdateAttrAt("env:Body|m:alert",true,"xmlns:m","http://example.org/alert");
    xml.UpdateChildContent("env:Body|m:alert|m:msg","Pick up Mary at school at 2pm");
    console.log(xml.GetXml());
    console.log("----");

    //  The following SOAP XML is built:

    //  	<env:Envelope xmlns:env="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope">
    //  	 <env:Header>
    //  	  <n:alertcontrol xmlns:n="http://example.org/alertcontrol">
    //  	   <n:priority>1</n:priority>
    //  	   <n:expires>2001-06-22T14:00:00-05:00</n:expires>
    //  	  </n:alertcontrol>
    //  	 </env:Header>
    //  	 <env:Body>
    //  	  <m:alert xmlns:m="http://example.org/alert">
    //  	   <m:msg>Pick up Mary at school at 2pm</m:msg>
    //  	  </m:alert>
    //  	 </env:Body>
    //  	</env:Envelope>
    //  

    //  Now build the WSSE XML housing that we'll insert into the above SOAP XML at the end.

    //  	<wsse:Security>
    //  	  <wsse:UsernameToken xmlns:wsu="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-utility-1.0.xsd" wsu:Id="WSU_ID">

    //  	    <wsse:Nonce>NONCE</wsse:Nonce>
    //  	    <wsu:Created>CREATED</wsu:Created>
    //  	  </wsse:UsernameToken>
    //  	</wsse:Security>

    var wsse = new chilkat.Xml();
    wsse.Tag = "wsse:Security";
    wsse.UpdateAttrAt("wsse:UsernameToken",true,"xmlns:wsu","http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-utility-1.0.xsd");

    wsse.UpdateChildContent("wsse:UsernameToken|wsse:Password","PASSWORD_DIGEST");
    wsse.UpdateChildContent("wsse:UsernameToken|wsse:Nonce","NONCE");
    wsse.UpdateChildContent("wsse:UsernameToken|wsu:Created","CREATED");
    console.log(wsse.GetXml());
    console.log("----");

    //  Insert the wsse:Security XML into the existing SOAP header:
    // xHeader: Xml
    var xHeader = xml.GetChildWithTag("env:Header");
    xHeader.AddChildTree(wsse);

    //  Now show the SOAP XML with the wsse:Security header added:
    console.log(xml.GetXml());
    console.log("----");

    //  Now our XML looks like this:
    //  	<env:Envelope xmlns:env="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope">
