[Qt-interest] Was XML parsing library in Qt - XPath/Qt

[Jason H]

I once wrote a custom XPath parser (limited functionality)

It's not hard to use with the DOM stuff. And I wrote one using a custom parser 
using stream readers as well. Both only took a couple K of RAM beyond the 
library requirements. The stream reader was smallest over-all because no QtXML 
library was needed.

As a side question, Is there another XPath implementation other than 
QtXmlPatterns? or some other way of bringing down the target library size?
