IV12395: SERVICELOADER LOSES CLASSPATH ORDER

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Error Message: There is one properties file for each Service,
  and the ServiceLoader will load the properties file line by
  line. The symptom is that the sequence of ServiceLoader.iterator
  is not guaranteed the same as the sequence in properties file.
  .
  Stack Trace: N/A
  .
  

Local fix

• No workaround
  

Problem summary

• The problem is that ServiceLoader uses a HashSet to store the
  classes which read from service properties file. The sequence of
  items in a HashSet is not the same as when putting them into the
  HashSet.
  

Problem conclusion

• This defect will be fixed in:
  6.0.1 SR2
  6.0.0 SR11
  .
  Use an ArrayList to store the classes to ensure the sequence of
  ServiceLoader.iterator is the same as defined in properties
  file.
  

Temporary fix
