Currently we don't order components -- with this new feature we will have to,
otherwise we cannot order deployments with multiple matchings.
e.g. both -properties.xml and -service.xml in the same sub-deployment
This is now
done.
There is a helper method on AbstractDeployer
/**
* Change relative order on unit.
*
* @param unit the deploymenty unit
* @param relativeOrder the relative order
*/
protected static void changeRelativeOrder(DeploymentUnit unit, int relativeOrder)
{
if (unit instanceof DeploymentUnitExt)
{
DeploymentUnitExt ext = (DeploymentUnitExt) unit;
ext.changeRelativeOrder(relativeOrder);
}
}
which changes the relative order of given DeploymentUnit, while also notifying its parent
of the change.
So, the next time you invoke any of the getters on the parent -- getChildren or
getComponents -- those are re-ordered.
If one wants to keep the order consistent through out the deployment lifecycle, it must
also reset the value to previous at undeploy.
e.g. we change the order 1st time, using it in some X deployer, then we change it the 2nd
time, for Y, expecting both to hold also on undeploy
If there were multiple such changes, my guess is it would probably be hard to keep things
under control.
But I doubt there will be more than 1-2 changes in the whole lifecycle.
