Hi,
I'm trying to find a solution for copying an existing tree with an identity transformation.
Some nodes should be modified. For the most tasks I have a solution but this one.
Transforming a node like this:
----------------
input tree:
/context-node/
+-/ A /
+-/ B /
+-/ C mode="x" /
+-/ D mode="x" /
+-/ E /
+-/ F /
-----------------
result tree:
/context-node/
+-/ A /
+-/ B /
+-/ X /
+-/ C mode="x" /
+-/ D mode="x" /
+-/ E /
+-/ F /
===========
My approach uses the recursion pattern (Kay 2001 p. 614) to iterate through the child node list.
The best I've got so far is:
-----------------
result tree:
/context-node/
+-/ A /
+-/ B /
+-/ X /
+-/ C mode="x" /
+-/ D mode="x" /
+-/ E /
+-/ F /
===========
I think this is so because the recursion levels lay upon each other and inserting the X node in one
effects the rest node list even if I test for 'not mode' Nodes.
Question: Is the recursion pattern the best way to do the job and I only need to do more reasoning?
Or, does anyone know an alternative way to do that?
