[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (CDI-4) Need a way to provide ordering for Event observers (@Observes)

[Mark Struberg (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-4?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12600525#comment-12600525 ] 

Mark Struberg commented on CDI-4:
---------------------------------

Interesting idea, tell us more.

Anything which is 'outside' the observers is a welcome bonus. If we create a model where the observers need to know about other observers, then 90% of the benefits of the observer/observable pattern is lost imo.

> Understandably, this is somewhat counter-intuitive to the general concept of observing an event, but there is going to be need for this in an upcoming JBoss project. While it can be done manually, it might be nice to have a built-in API.
