That way the order in which the > handlers are added to the list is independent of the actual registration > order. This is, for example, important for the static file server which > always needs to be registered last. > I propose to add a special {{String}} {{Comparator}} which considers the > charactor {{':'}} to be the character with the largest value. That way we > should get always the following sort order: > - URLs without path parameters have precedence over similar URLs where parts > are replaced by path parameters (e.g. {{/jobs/overview}}, {{/jobs/:jobid}} > and {{/jobs/:jobid/config}}, {{/jobs/:jobid/vertices/:vertexId}}) > - Prefixes are sorted before URLs containing the prefix (e.g. {{/jobs}}, > {{/jobs/overview}}) -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
