If you want to order modules that are part of an enterprise application,
you can use the "initialize-in-order" element in the application.xml
(new in Java EE 6). With the value of this element set to true, modules
will be initialized/loaded in the order they're listed in this
deployment descriptor.
If you are more concerned of the loading order of the standalone
modules, GlassFish currently does not support configuring loading order.
However, with GlassFish, the initial deployment order of the modules
will be the loading order during server restart. For example, if moduleA
is deployed before moduleB, moduleA will be loaded before moduleB during
server restart. You can take advantage of this to order the initial
deployments accordingly.
