During its startup:
XXE recursively scans the addon/ subdirectory of XXE user preferences directory searching it for files containing add-ons.
XXE user preferences directory is:
on Unix,$HOME/.xxe/
on Windows 2000/XP,%SystemDrive%\Documents and Settings\%USERNAME%\Application Data\XMLmind\XMLeditor\
on Windows NT.%SystemDrive%\winnt\Profiles\%USERNAME%\Application Data\XMLmind\XMLeditor\
This addon/ subdirectory is recursively scanned by XXE at startup time. Therefore, feel free to organize it as you want.
If the XXE_ADDON_PATH variable is set to a non empty string, the content of this variable must be a list of directory names separated by character ";" (even on Unix). All the directories referenced in this list are recursively scanned by XXE.
File names and "file://" URLs are both supported. Windows example:
C> set XXE_ADDON_PATH=C:\xxe-std-210\doc\configure\samples\example1;\ file:///C:/xxe-std-210/doc/configure/samples/example2
If this path ends with ";+", the addon/ subdirectory of XXE installation directory is also scanned at startup time. Otherwise, the default add-ons (XHTML configuration, DocBook configuration, etc) are ignored.
Form @absolute URL is also supported.
Absolute URL specifies the location of a text file containing a list of (generally relative) URLs to be scanned by XXE. The URLs in this list are separated by white space.
Example, sample_configs.list:
example1 example1/example1.css example1/example1.dtd example1/example1.xml example1/example1.xxe example1/example1_catalog.xml example2 example2/example2.css example2/example2.xml example2/example2.xsd example2/example2.xxe example2/example2_catalog.xml
Unix example:
$ export XXE_ADDON_PATH="@http://www.foo.com/xxe/sample_configs.list;+"
If the XXE_ADDON_PATH is not set or is set to an empty string or ends with ";+", XXE also recursively scans the addon/ subdirectory of its installation directory searching it for files containing add-ons.
