Hi, I didn't look, but unless magnolia has very special handling for this, Java loads classpath resources on a first-come basis, i.e. if a class or resource is present twice in the classpath, it will simply be loaded from the first location found. Which is the first location is not clearly defined (can be OS dependant, I think), but in practical purposes JAR files are loaded in alphabetical order.
Does magnolia use the classloading mechanism, or does it scan JARs itself?
