Michael Marth commented on OAK-169: ----------------------------------- Would we need to support multi-valued properties with many entries for such an implementation? I wonder about the 10M-child node[1] case when ordering is added.

That functionality is not included in the MicroKernel > tree model, so we need to implement it either in oak-core or oak-jcr using > something like an extra (hidden) {{oak:childOrder}} property that records the > specified ordering of child nodes. A multi-valued string property is probably > good enough for this. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
