order in which different portlets in a page are executed
Heloo,
Any body know in which order the different portlets added in a page is executed.Also is there any way that we can control the order. so that a purticular portlet say 'A' is executed and rendered before another one say 'B'. Iam using vignette based environment to run my Portlets and using RAD to develop the Portlets.
Thanks

Generally you have no control over the order in which portlets are rendered. The only processes in which order is guarenteed is:
1) If a portlet's processAction method was called, then it will be called before the doView method of any other portlets.
2) You can use Inter-Portlet Communication API in Portal 7. In this case, portlets can queue events and the portal will fire the events in the order they were queued.
