func chilkatTest() {
    // Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.64 or later.
    let xml = CkoXml()!

    xml.tag = "aaa"

    // A single tag can be passed to NewChild2, and this behaves as it always has:
    xml.newChild2(tagPath: "penguin", content: "flightless bird")
    xml.newChild2(tagPath: "mammal", content: "")
    print("\(xml.getXml()!)")

    // The output:

    // 	<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
    // 	<aaa>
    // 	    <penguin>flightless bird</penguin>
    // 	    <mammal />
    // 	</aaa>
    // 
    // Starting in v9.5.0.64, a tag path can be used.
    // It will cause nodes to be automatically created as needed.
    xml.newChild2(tagPath: "red|green|blue", content: "sky")
    xml.newChild2(tagPath: "mammal|rodent|squirrel", content: "bushy tail")
    print("\(xml.getXml()!)")

    // The output:

    // 	<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
    // 	<aaa>
    // 	    <penguin>flightless bird</penguin>
    // 	    <mammal>
    // 	        <rodent>
