[jira] (MNG-3522) Cannot define execution order explicitly

    [ https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3522?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=347452#comment-347452 ] 

James Garrison commented on MNG-3522:
-------------------------------------

Why am I unable to vote for this?  Lack of proper sequencing is a major impediment to using Maven for CI/CD where several steps must be executed in sequence for test database setup during a build.

> In this example antrun:run is excuted after dependency:copy-dependencies by virtue of plugin order. Preferable would be an explicit order definition. For example, a plugin could export a 'phase-id' that another uses in its 'phase' element.
