Artifact artf5958 : Argument element order
Tracker: [CLOSED] JSDL v1.0 Errata
Title: Argument element order
Description:
[This is taken from the HPC Profile Application public comment tracker. Posted by Steven Newhouse.]

The order the Argument elements are concatinated in is not specified. There seems to be an assumption they are done in 
the order parsed in the document. AFAIK there is no assurance that element ordering will be preservered.

Arguments:

 -cp x.jar

and 

x.jar -cp 

are (obviously) very different.

A short sentence requiring implementors to maintain argument ordering could be added to eliminate confusion.

  Comment:
A normative MUST is needed here.

Take sentence from HPCP profile?

"The order of multiple Argument elements MUST be preserved".

Proposed:

"The order in which arguments are passed to the invocation of the executable MUST match the document order of the Argument elements".

Change example to include this case and make clear.

  Comment:
HPC Application added text is :

"The order of multiple Argument elements MUST be preserved (see the examples in Section 3.3.6)."

with some extra text in the Examples:

"Note that the order of “-cp”, “./example.jar”, and “org.example.Main” MUST be preserved (e.g., “[java] ./example.jar –cp org.example.Mail” 
is not correct)."
