I’d like to travese the contents of an xml.collected() in a reverse 
order. I have
    for connectionFromXML in xml.collected(viewFromXML,"/connection") do
       parseXMLConnection( rootFromXML, connectionFromXML, viewFromXML, 
rootFromOverrideXML)
     end
I tried:
    local relationTable = xml.collected(viewFromXML,"/connection")
     for i=#relationTable, 1, -1 do
       connectionFromXML = relationTable[i]
       parseXMLConnection( rootFromXML, connectionFromXML, viewFromXML, 
rootFromOverrideXML)
     end
But apparently my lua knowledge is lacking (severely, I might say) as 
this ends with “attempt to get length of a function value“
it's an iterator
...
What is the correct way to do it?
xml.all
