[jira] Commented: (MECLIPSE-388) Correct classpath ordering in .classpath

["Jean-Noel Rouvignac (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MECLIPSE-388?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=268987#action_268987 ] 

Jean-Noel Rouvignac commented on MECLIPSE-388:
----------------------------------------------

Even though the sumarry does not reflect it, I think MECLIPSE-665
 is a duplicate of the current bug.

By the way, do you have any news on this bug? I am facing it as well where I want a hibernate.cfg.xml file from one project to be picked up based on the ordering of the depencencies in the classpath. I have a test which work fine in Surefire, but since Eclipse is using an alphabetical ordering, it is picking up the hibernate.cfg.xml file from another project making the test fail. I had to do some classloader magic (ClassLoader.getResources()) to make it work all the time at the expense of longer running tests. Everything that adds up time to run a test is definitely not nice.

Thanks.

> Currently plugin sorts artifacts on its own (alphabetic order???) because the order of dependencies that comes from maven is not reliable (random?). This breaks tests that use JBoss Embedded which works under maven surefire plugin because it still puts dependencies that came first at the beginning of the classpath). Apparently not all classpath elements are put in random order. At least I get the first ones listed in dependencies also first in the classpath (can be seen as ${surefire.test.class.path} and in target/surefire-reports/TEST-TestSuite.xml).
> While there is not much we can do for maven eclipse plugin a solution is on the way: MNG-1412. When maven 2.0.9 is released maven eclipse plugin can revert back to the default classpath order.
> Can we somehow schedule this?
> Another question: is there anyway to put certain dependencies in the first place except for renaming them so that alphabetic order does the job?
