A better solution would be to the VisualThemeSet definition to wherever the other one is defined, preferably to the framework itself along with the other foundational theme resources.

Don't think of this theme set as using ecommerce and therefore depends on ecommerce. In fact it's the other way around, ecommerce depends on the theme set so the theme set doesn't need to be included but it does need to depend on whatever defines the theme set.

Hi David,
the issue is this:

In the ecommerce application a specific (to the ecommerce application)
VisualThemeSet is defined:
In EcommerceTypeData.xml:
   <VisualThemeSet visualThemeSetId="ECOMMERCE"
description="ECommerce Visual Themes"/>

The multiflex theme is defined as:
   <VisualTheme visualThemeId="MULTIFLEX"
visualThemeSetId="ECOMMERCE" description="Alternative VisualTheme for
Ecommerce"/>

When doing "ant run-install" for the first time the
visualThemeSetId="ECOMMERCE" is not found when the VisualTheme entity
gets created.

This is the reason I think themes should be loaded AFTER the
applications because, actually, they apply ON applications.

I have run a local test with this component-load.xml and it works well. <component-loader xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema- instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="http://ofbiz.apache.org/dtds/component-loader.xsd ">
   <load-components parent-directory="framework"/>
   <load-components parent-directory="applications"/>
   <load-components parent-directory="specialpurpose"/>
   <load-components parent-directory="themes"/>
   <load-components parent-directory="hot-deploy"/>
</component-loader>

Thank you,
Bruno

It sounds like there is some sort of conflict between the theme and what is
in ecommerce.

We may very well want to have the themes load after everything else... but could you describe what is being overridden, ie what is conflicting? Is that
something that can be avoided?

For the moment, in order to have the multiflex theme available it is
necessary to reload the seeds using webtools:

I have seen that the themes are loaded after the framework component
and before the applications.
This cause an error when the newly added multiflex theme tries to
define its seeds because the VisualThemeSet it belongs to is defined
by the ecommerce application.

I think we should have the theme loaded after the application.
