Add Child Tree

Add a child tree to an existing XML document.

Download Chilkat Ruby Library

require 'chilkat'


#  First, build a sample XML document:
xml = Chilkat::CkXml.new()
xml.put_Tag("stocks")

xmlM = xml.NewChild("Microsoft","")
xmlM.NewChild2("symbol","MSFT")
xmlM.NewChild2("recentPrice","28.00")

xmlG = xml.NewChild("Google","")
xmlG.NewChild2("symbol","GOOG")
xmlG.NewChild2("recentPrice","440.00")

#  Display the XML so far...
print xml.getXml() + "\n";

#  This is the XML displayed:
#  <stocks>
#      <Microsoft>
#          <symbol>MSFT</symbol>
#          <recentPrice>28.00</recentPrice>
#      </Microsoft>
#      <Google>
#          <symbol>GOOG</symbol>
#          <recentPrice>440.00</recentPrice>
#      </Google>
#  </stocks>

#  We want to add Yahoo to it:

xYahoo = "<Yahoo><symbol>YHOO</symbol><recentPrice>28.00</recentPrice></Yahoo>"

xmlYahoo = Chilkat::CkXml.new()
xmlYahoo.LoadXml(xYahoo)

#  Add the xmlYahoo document just under the root node of
#  our original XML document:
xml.AddChildTree(xmlYahoo)

#  Display the result:
print xml.getXml() + "\n";
