> When XmlSchema returns schemas in a collection, they are in an unpredictable
> order that depends on the hashcode for, among other things, the absolute path
> to them on the file system. This is a problem for reproducible builds, as the
> result will differ depending on where you store the schemas you work on.
> For example, I use CXF's "wsdl2java" tool to generate Java classes from my
> schemas. The schemas are in a source control system, which is checked out by
> a CI server in different folders depending on the branch name among other
> things.
> CXF keeps schemas in an XmlSchemaCollection instance and asks for all schemas
> during type generation. It then uses these to generate an "ObjectFactory"
> class that contains elements from these schemas. As the schemas are returned
> in a different order depending on the checkout folder path, the generated
> source code will contain the elements in different order from build to build.
> This in turn breaks our build cache that fingerprints the schema files as
> inputs and generated code as output, which breaks the cache further in the
> build pipeline and leads to long build times.
> While this could be fixed in CXF by sorting the schemas first, or by not
> generating a systemId that includes the full path, I think it will be
> beneficial to make that class return schemas in a predictable order for all
> clients, and not just CXF. The order could be the same as when schemas were
> added to begin with (requiring the client to iterate over them in a
> predictable order).
> Technically, the XmlSchemaCollection class keeps schemas in a HashMap where
> the key is a SchemaKey, containing a "systemId" field that includes the full
> file path.
