        Return the CIM-XML representation of this CIM instance path,
        as a :term:`unicode string`.

        *New in pywbem 0.9.*

        For the returned CIM-XML representation, see
        :meth:`~pywbem.CIMInstanceName.tocimxml`.

        Parameters:

          indent (:term:`string` or :term:`integer`):
            `None` indicates that a single-line version of the XML should be
            returned, without any whitespace between the XML elements.

            Other values indicate that a prettified, multi-line version of the
            XML should be returned. A string value specifies the indentation
            string to be used for each level of nested XML elements. An integer
            value specifies an indentation string of so many blanks.

          ignore_host (:class:`py:bool`): Ignore the host of the
            instance path, even if a host is specified.

          ignore_namespace (:class:`py:bool`): Ignore the namespace and host of
            the instance path, even if a namespace and/or host is specified.

        Returns:

            The CIM-XML representation of the value, as a
            :term:`unicode string`.
