Re: [Gretl-devel] Is there an xpath counterpart to jsonget?

Thanks I will have a look at the references you have listed. The main benefit, for myself, of this exercise is that it is a C project. Good first foray into gretl's land of C. ;-) Logan -----Original Message----- From: gretl-devel-bounces(a)lists.wfu.edu [mailto:gretl-devel-bounces@lists.wfu.edu] On Behalf Of Allin Cottrell Sent: Saturday, January 23, 2016 12:07 PM To: Gretl development <gretl-devel(a)lists.wfu.edu&gt; Subject: Re: [Gretl-devel] Is there an xpath counterpart to jsonget?

Gretl already links to libxml2, so it would be a matter of figuring out the xpath API in that library and "wrapping" it with a gretl function in a similar manner to our wrapping of the json-glib API. Not a trivial job, but doable. There's relevant material at http://www.xmlsoft.org/tutorial/ar01s05.html and in gretl's plugin/json_get.c. Just to be clear, though, this would be a C project, though I guess you could "prototype" it using the python bindings for libxml2.
