Comments on: A Zipper for scala.xml http://szeiger.de/blog/2009/12/27/a-zipper-for-scala-xml/ Stefan Zeiger's Software Development Weblog Fri, 16 Dec 2011 10:09:44 +0100 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Tony http://szeiger.de/blog/2009/12/27/a-zipper-for-scala-xml/comment-page-1/#comment-113 Tony Mon, 16 May 2011 20:32:18 +0000 http://szeiger.de/?p=54#comment-113 This has been a life saver for me. It's really unfortunate that scala neither includes xpath axes functionality, nor xpath functionality generally. It would be nice to take these ideas and get someone like Michael Kay (of Saxonica) involved - he is a key driver of the Xpath / XQuery / XSLT standards and wrote the awesome Saxon libraries.

I have found that because of the immutability aspects, it is easier to build from leafs to roots. This is pretty easy to accomplish in scala because of the ability to pass in closures.
