Hi James,
why make this configurable?
Not sorting updates can lead to nasty and hardly reproducible/investigatable
deadlock situations. At least, ordered updates should be the default, I think.

Betreff: Re: [eclipselink-dev] SVN main commit: bug#304738 - option to
avoid possible database deadlock in updates
If we enable sorting would it be better to sort on the fly
as the changesets are added to the UnitOfWorkChangeSet instead of resorting the
list later?

It is currently possible for uow updates for a class to occur in a
non-consistent order. This can cause a possible deadlock on the
database if
multiple threads are updating the same set of objects at the same time.
This fix adds an option to uow to allow updates within a class to be
ordered by pk.
Code review: Andrei (pending)
Changes:
- Added database update deadlock test to client-server test suite
- Added persistence unit property,
"eclipselink.order-updates" to allow updates to be ordered
- Made ObjectChangeSet and CacheId Comparable to allow ordering by id
- Added check in CommitManager to sort change sets before updating
- Fixed aggregate check for batch reading in ForeignReferenceMapping
