Felix Meschberger commented on FELIX-2968:
------------------------------------------
The order is specified exactly in Section 112.5.7, Binding Services:
"When binding services, the references are processed in the order in which
they are specified in the component description. That is, target services
from
the first specified reference are bound before services from the next speci-
fied reference."
So, just order the references "correctly" in your descriptor and you should be
done.
> Bind method of optional references can be called before bind methods of
> mandatory references

> Hi,
> i got the following problem.
> I've some references to services, some of them are mandatory and some are
> optional. Well now osgi/scr waits to call the bind methods till all mandatory
> services are available.
> However when it starts to call the bind methods it seems that it doesn't care
> if those are mandatory or optional. This can result in a not expected
> behavior where optional dependencies are satisfied before the mandatory are.
> Consider you have a optional dynamic multiple service binding which you want
> to use with a mandatory service. There's as far as it looks to me no way to
> ensure that the mandatory binds are called before optional are allowed.
