OK Thanks. The new examples make it much clearer.

Hi Simon,
you should not rely on the order in which the steps methods are
declared for the matching.
The method signatures are retrieved by the Class.getMethods() and the
JRE may return them in different order.
The easiest way is to avoid the issue is to ensure that the step
pattern match uniquely, but if that's not an option (sometimes it
isn't if you want effective communication of behaviour) then you need
to prioritise them:
http://jbehave.org/reference/stable/prioritising-steps.html
With the default strategy you can add a positive priority to the step
that you want matched first:
@Then(value="the base currency reported by the configuration service
is empty", priority=1)
@Then("the base currency reported by the configuration service is
$currency")
Another strategy is based on the
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levenshtein_distance.
Else, you can provide your own prioritisation strategy.
Cheers

We have just found a small issue when moving up to Java 7 from Java 6.
We are using JBehave 3.6.2.
Consider the 2 steps below:
@Then("the base currency reported by the configuration service*is
empty*")
public void theBaseCurrencyIsEmpty() {
and
@Then("the base currency reported by the configuration service*is
$currency*")
public void theBaseCurrencyIs(final String currency) {
and the line to be interpreted "the base currency reported by the
configuration service is empty"
Under Java 6, this would always result in the 1st method being
executed which is what we would expect. Under Java 7, the 2nd method
is executed. Would have thought it should look for the specific
literal text before attempting to match with parameterisation?
