[Building Sakai] Site Info Add Participants, role names not sorted in 2.6.2

[Walters, Cynthia (cmw6s)]

Hello Adam:
Thank you for your reply.  I did some testing here, we are running 2.6.2 with Java 6.  A simple test program run against both Java 5 and Java 6 showed no difference in the ordering of a list, however.

In any case, I have addressed the issue here by sorting the 'roles' List in method 'fillComponents()' found in both DifferentRoleProducer.java and SameRoleProducer.java, with the desired result of the roles now displaying in alphabetical order on the same-role and different-role pages.

Best,
Cynthia Walters

we noted that the ordering of some lists changed when we moved to java 6. Could this be related?

| Hello:
|
| I have noticed that Sakai 2.6.2 seems to no longer present the list of
| available roles in alphabetical order by the role name.  I see this for
| Site Info -- Add Participants -- Choose a Role for Participants page,
| for both same-role and different-role choices.  However, on the main
| page for Site Info, the role names are sorted alphabetically as in the
| past, for both the drop-down chooser list for each site member, and for
| the list of available roles and their descriptions.
|
| The sorted list makes it easier to find the desired role, and this
| 2.6.2 changed display differs from the previous 2.5.x release.
|
| Has this issue been addressed for 2.6.x or beyond?
|
| Thank you,
