Philipp Bracher commented on MAGNOLIA-1541:
-------------------------------------------

thoughts:
- we could use the number of dots instead of the length
- ordering on same level
  - last part of the file in alphabetical orer
  - we could use the modification date
  - intorduce a postfix (1,2,3) to define the order (don't like this one ;-)

workaround:
  - you can always enforce the order by creating a parent bootstrap file 
containing the empty nodes in correct order

> bootstrap: ordering files by filename length isnt always very nice

>             Project: Magnolia
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: core
>    Affects Versions: 3.1 M1, 3.0.2
>            Reporter: Grégory Joseph
>         Assigned To: Sameer Charles

> Consider the following bootstrap files:
> config.modules.test.templates.babababababababababba.xml
> config.modules.test.templates.mail-form.xml
> config.modules.test.templates.redir.xml
> config.modules.test.templates.std.xml
> config.modules.test.templates.tralalalala.xml
> config.modules.test.templates.utility.xml
> With the current BootstrapFilesComparator, they will be ordered, bootstrapped 
> and appear in the tree in the following order: std, redir, utility, 
> mail-form, tralalalala and babababababababababba, which admitedly doesn't 
> make much sense.
> The reason why the files are ordered by length is an easy hack to bootstrap 
> parent files first (ie config.modules.test.templates.xml would be 
> bootstrapped before any of the above)
> I added BootstrapFilesComparatorTest.testFilesAreOrderedByFileNameLength() to 
> illustrate some of these issues.
