Unrelated but inter-dependent projects in the same group are not built in the 
correct order

                 Key: CONTINUUM-2218
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/CONTINUUM-2218
             Project: Continuum
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.3.2
            Reporter: Wendy Smoak
            Priority: Critical


To reproduce, add three unrelated projects to a project group where one project 
depends on the other two, such as an EAR that depends on two WARs.  They can 
use a master pom as <parent> but should not be part of a parent-with-modules 
hierarchy.  

The expected behavior is for Continuum to build the WARs first and then the 
EAR, however this is not what happens in my example.  The EAR is built first, 
causing it to have the wrong/old WARs inside and wasting time spent testing the 
wrong artifacts.

This happens whether or not multiple parallel build queues are used.  With 
multiple queues, Continuum scatters the projects among queues and the build 
order depends on what finishes first.  When restricted to a single queue, you 
can see the incorrect order as it moves through the queue.

Continuum should consider dependencies when ordering projects within a group, 
even if the projects are not part of a multi-module hierarchy.

[Unconfirmed regression in 1.3.x.  I believe this worked correctly in 1.2.x  as 
we're getting new problem reports after upgrading, but haven't had time to 
verify.]
