With xxe 3.0p1 pro installed (same problem on xxe 2.10 pro but
upgraded to see if corrected) but not running:
If you execute the following at a Terminal prompt:
$ open $EXISTING_FILE_WITH_docb_EXTENSION
XXE starts but does not open the file.
If you go into the XMLEditor.app package and run:
$ ./JavaApplicationStub $EXISTING_FILE_WITH_docb_EXTENSION
XXE starts and DOES open the file.
Clearly the LauchServices handoff triggered by "open" is not being
handled properly. Oddly, Finder File->Open works (as does the right
click menu) but others apps cannot invoke XMLEditor either; only
Finder seems to able to. For example, Eclipse 3.1.1 fails to invoke
XMLEditor in the same way; XMLEditor starts but does not open the
passed file. Eclipse has no problem with other applications.
