Description pjm344 2010-03-03 15:56:54 UTC

It would be nice to be able to specify the order that certain classes with the same names are loaded in.  For example, I'd prefer to load java.sql.PreparedStatement before com.mysql.jdbc.PreparedStatement.

I'm using JDBC for the actual driver, but I'd prefer that for encapsulation's sake my classes use the java.sql version in case I ever need to swap out.  It would be nice if there were a dialog somewhere in the Libraries for changing the order of imports, particularly against the java packages.

I haven't been able to find any mention of this, but please forgive if this is a solved issue.

Thanks!
