webapp load order isn't supported by jetty-deploy or the DeploymentManager.

But never fear, you can manually add the required webapps that need to come
first, and then let the DeploymentManager handle the rest.

Lets assume you have a war called *example.war* that you want to ensure is
deployed and started first.

Here's the process:

[~]$ cd my-base
[my-base]$ mkdir prewebapps
[my-base]$ cp ~/code/project/target/example-1.0-SNAPSHOT.war
prewebapps/example.war
[my-base]$ mkdir etc
[my-base[$ cp ~/code/project/prewebapps.xml etc/prewebapps.xml
[my-base]$ echo "prewebapps.xml" >> start.ini
[my-base]$ cat etc/prewebapps.xml
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE Configure PUBLIC "-//Jetty//Configure//EN" "
http://www.eclipse.org/jetty/configure_9_0.dtd";>
<Configure id="Contexts"
class="org.eclipse.jetty.server.handler.ContextHandlerCollection">
  <Call name="addHandler">
    <Arg>
      <New class="org.eclipse.jetty.webapp.WebAppContext">
        <Set name="contextPath">/example</Set>
        <Set name="war"><Property name="jetty.base"
default="."/>/prewebapps/example.war</Set>
      </New>
    </Arg>
  </Call>
</Configure>


The key points:

   - Put the *example.war* into a directory that is NOT the
   ${jetty.base}/webapps/ directory
   (as you don't want it to be picked up by the standard jetty-deploy /
   DeploymentManger techniques)
   - You are configuring the existing "Contexts" (id) to manually add those
   webapps.
   This means you *don't* have a separate XML for each war file (like you
   would with the jetty-deploy techniques)
   Instead what was a separate XML is now embedded in this
   ${jetty.base}/etc/prewebapps.xml file.


Good luck
