Hi, the source code for the xpath UDFs is at https://github.com/apache/hive/tree/trunk/ql/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/ql/udf/xml
I checked and saw that there were no changes made to these UDFs after there initial creation by HIVE-1027. So, that's all we have. Sorry. However, if you would like make additions to those UDFs, you are welcome to do so by creating a JIRA and posting a patch. UDFs are an easy and excellent way to contribute back to the Hive community. Thanks!
