while evaluating XMLMind I was able to create custom configurations as
described in your documentations.

I created a new directory in install_dir\addon\config\  added xxe_addon,
xxe, xsd, template and css files and everything was working like a
charm. When using the deployxxe-commandlinetool my configuration becomes
part of the xxe.jar and can be used in the embedded version.

That's correct. This is explained in:


http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/dev/embed_xxe_jar.html#embed_main_jar





But now I want to add a configuration in an already built and embedded
version of XMLMind. I was not able to manage this until now and some
help would be really appreciated.


This is an uncommon need. If you create an embedded version of XMLmind XML Editor, you are supposed to embed all your add-ons too. I mean, an embedded, generally specialized, XML editor cannot be expected to have the same flexibility as the desktop application.



Therefore I'm not 100% sure that what you want to achieve is possible. (I would need to spend some time re-reading the code or to make the test myself to be sure.) However it's rather quick and simple for you to test that.

Please add your add-on inside the ``other'' addon/ directory, that is, <XXE_user_preferences_dir>/addon/ where <XXE_user_preferences_dir>/ is:

    * $HOME/.xxe6/ on Linux.

    * $HOME/Library/Application Support/XMLmind/XMLEditor6/ on the Mac.

    * %APPDATA%\XMLmind\XMLEditor6\ on Windows XP, Vista, 7 and 8.

Example: C:\Documents and Settings\john\Application Data\XMLmind\XMLEditor6\ on Windows XP. C:\Users\john\AppData\Roaming\XMLmind\XMLEditor6\ on Windows Vista, 7 and 8.

If you cannot see the "Application Data" directory using Microsoft Windows File Manager, turn on Tools>Folder Options>View>File and Folders>Show hidden files and folders.

Also please make sure that the quick start cache is either not used or cleared after this install.
