RE: Couldn't load XMLC class

Here's what you should do...

String className = "com.efi.apps.mayfly.presentation.xmlc.account.loginHTML";

doc = DefaultDOMLoader.getGlobalInstance().getDOM(Class.forName(className, 
true, Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader()));

That should work just fine.

Of course you are free to modify Barracuda as you wish.  However, that is a 
maintenance issue you don't need, IMO.  You could also use XMLC dynamic 
loading (or Jivan dynamic loading), but that requires some extra 
configuration that you probably don't want and you will also not be able to 
compile against XMLC convenience methods such as get/setTextMyId() as they 
won't exist at compile time.
