agree. But I have to admit, that I would simply order the things  
different to avoid that.

right, I see it now. Actually I usually don't specify dependencies on  
class level, as I would order it anyway different. But I see that for  
the way you are doing the class setups you would need that.

Thanks for your explanations.
