Description

In order to do proper overlaying of the wars, we must have exact control over the order of layering. Currently the wars are specified in the dependencies and there's no guarantee to the order. The only solution that comes to mind is additional configuration in the war plugin to specify the order like:

<configuration>
<overlays>
<overlay>group-artifact-version-type</overlay>
<overlay>group-artifact-version-type</overlay>
<overlay>group-artifact-version-type</overlay>
</overlays>
</configuration>
