[jira] [Commented] (ACE-223) Undefined order of UIExtensionFactories

["Marcel Offermans (Commented) (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACE-223?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13229946#comment-13229946 ] 

Marcel Offermans commented on ACE-223:
--------------------------------------

Whilst I agree that having a well defined order is a lot better than having no order (which turned out to be a pretty random order) I am not convinced we should use the service ranking for that, so in the end I would like to have some more sophisticated system. However, compared to the current situation I think this is an improvement, so I'm applying the patch.

> You can register multiple UIExtensionFactories for a NamedObject's editor. However, their order isn't defined and changes continuously. Needless to say that this is annoying to the end user/administrator.
> We should provide a default ordering (for example on the service.id of registered UIExtensionFactory), but also allow custom ordering to be defined explicitly, for example by adding a service-property.
