You are correct that there's no current way to control the order of view handler initialization. For the specific case of choosing a ViewControllerMapper instance, however, use the context init parameter ShaleApplicationFilter.VIEW_CONTROLLER_MAPPER (the literal value is " org.apache.shale.view.VIEW_CONTROLLER_MAPPER") to specify the fully qualified class name. Shale's view handler will then use your implementation. L. Craig
