' Generate this XML with the code that follows:

' 	<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
' 	 <soap:Header>	     
' 	  <wsse:Security xmlns:wsse="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2003/06/secext">
' 	   <wsse:UsernameToken wsu:Id="sample" 
' 	       xmlns:wsu="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2003/06/utility">
' 	    <wsse:Username>sample</wsse:Username>
' 	    <wsse:Password Type="wsse:PasswordText">oracle</wsse:Password>
' 	    <wsu:Created>2004-05-19T08:44:51Z</wsu:Created>

' 	  <soap:Body>
' 	   <getHello xmlns="http://www.oracle.com"/>

' First build the outer housing:
Dim xml As New Chilkat.Xml
xml.Tag = "soap:Envelope"
xml.AddAttribute("xmlns:soap","http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/")
xml.UpdateChildContent("soap:Header","")
xml.UpdateAttrAt("soap:Body|getHello",True,"xmlns","http://www.oracle.com")


' Get the current date/time in a string with this format: 2004-05-19T08:46:04Z
Dim dt As New Chilkat.CkDateTime
dt.SetFromCurrentSystemTime()
Dim bLocal As Boolean = False
Dim created As String = dt.GetAsTimestamp(bLocal)

' Now build each UsernameToken block:
Dim wsse1 As New Chilkat.Xml
wsse1.Tag = "wsse:Security"
wsse1.AddAttribute("xmlns:wsse","http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2003/06/secext")
wsse1.UpdateAttrAt("wsse:UsernameToken",True,"wsu:Id","sample")
wsse1.UpdateAttrAt("wsse:UsernameToken",True,"xmlns:wsu","http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2003/06/utility")
wsse1.UpdateChildContent("wsse:UsernameToken|wsse:Username","sample")
wsse1.UpdateAttrAt("wsse:UsernameToken|wsse:Password",True,"Type","wsse:PasswordText")
wsse1.UpdateChildContent("wsse:UsernameToken|wsse:Password","oracle")
wsse1.UpdateChildContent("wsse:UsernameToken|wsu:Created",created)

Dim wsse2 As New Chilkat.Xml
wsse2.Tag = "wsse:Security"
wsse2.AddAttribute("soap:actor","oracle")
wsse2.AddAttribute("xmlns:wsse","http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2003/06/secext")
wsse2.UpdateAttrAt("wsse:UsernameToken",True,"wsu:Id","oracle")
wsse2.UpdateAttrAt("wsse:UsernameToken",True,"xmlns:wsu","http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2003/06/utility")
wsse2.UpdateChildContent("wsse:UsernameToken|wsse:Username","oracle")
wsse2.UpdateAttrAt("wsse:UsernameToken|wsse:Password",True,"Type","wsse:PasswordText")
wsse2.UpdateChildContent("wsse:UsernameToken|wsse:Password","oracle")
wsse2.UpdateChildContent("wsse:UsernameToken|wsu:Created",created)


' Insert the UsernameToken blocks:
Dim xHeader As Chilkat.Xml = xml.GetChildWithTag("soap:Header")
xHeader.AddChildTree(wsse1)
xHeader.AddChildTree(wsse2)



' Show the XML:
