xpath

Thanks, that was one of my favorites. It also checks regexes and printf formatting strings.

BTW, if you do much with XPath, you really need the XPathView plugin, by Sascha Weinreutter, available via the PluginManager. Very sweet stuff.

By the way, are you aware of this feature request ?

Wasn't aware that it had been requested, but had already thought of it.

Another nice thing would be if it is possible to annotate a method variable.

Say you have:

public String wrappedXpathEvaluator(@Inspect(lang="XPath") String xpath)
{
...
}

which would trigger the evaluation of the inspection for such custom
methods too.
For sure, the annotation syntax can be changed ;)

Nice idea. Opens up a lot of possibilities...

That sounds very cool. This is a larger request, though, I think, to allow the
Language API to handle such strings.
