Hi Franck,

Sorry for the late response, but this should get you going...

It's been a while since I tried using Jivan, but the following should do 
the trick...

<global-repository-setup>

     <!-- Set the default dom factory for the global instance of the 
default dom loader -->
     <object name="$this">
         <method name="getServletContext" return="$sc"/>
     </object>
     <object name="$df" class="org.barracudamvc.core.util.dom.JivanDOMFactory">
         <!-- set the servlet context so that the dom factory can read 
web.xml context params and/or find files relative to the servlet context 
root such as "/WEB-INF/templates/foo.html" -->
         <method name="setServletContext" arg1="$sc" />
     </object>
     <object class="org.barracudamvc.core.util.dom.DefaultDOMLoader">
         <method name="getGlobalInstance" return="$dl" />
     </object>
     <object name="$dl">
         <method name="setDefaultDOMFactory" arg1="$df" />
     </object>

</global-repository-setup>

Then do...

Document doc = 
DefaultDOMLoader.getGlobalInstance().getDOM("/WEB-INF/templates/foo.html", 
someLocale);


Among the "pitfalls" of using Jivan rather than XMLC are that you no longer 
have custom document interface which can be checked at compile-time to make 
sure that the markup file matches what your code is expecting it to 
have.  Some like this, some don't care so much.  I think both are 
legitimate choices depending on your needs.

BTW, you can mix DOMFactories by doing...

DOMLoader loader = DefaultDOMLoader.getGlobalInstance();

loader.registerDOMFactory(jivanDOMFactory, "/WEB-INF/templates/foo.html");
loader.registerDOMFactory(xmlcDeferredParsingDOMFactory, 
"com.mycompany.ui.MyPageHTML");

This can also be done in the object repository config (note to self, we 
really should make that a groovy script rather than the cumbersome custom 
XML config language that it is currently)
