Questions about Spring Circular Dependency.

[MaxWang007]

1. Why is Spring's circular dependency intermittent?
2. Why doesn't Spring reorder the reading of Jar files based on their FileName (I noticed that local loading does reorder them)?

Supplement: I understand that the intermittent nature might be related to the loading order of Beans. Spring reads beans from jar files, and Maven does not guarantee the order of files in the jar. Could this be causing Spring to read them in an unordered manner?

I'm not sure if Maven does not guarantee the order of files in the jar; this is just my guess.
