How to influence the order in which DOM elements are inserted?

Rather strange. In fact they should be inserted to the end of the
collection.Am I right, that you speak about the collection? Then you can
create method like addSubtag2(int index) in your DOM interface, and it will
take the index into account while inserting.

If you're speaking about general insertion order, it's usually done
according to DTD/Schema, if they're present. So you just have to begin your
XML file properly.

OK, here's an another question. In a specialized editor for an XML file, I
can create new elements that are optional in the xml file. When I create a
section of the DOM that was not previously in the file.

But the Intellij seems to have its own prefered location that results in

Is there any way to influence the order/location of elements?

Ok, thanks. It maybe the XSD. I'll check.

according to DTD/Schema, if they're present.

Unless you're schema is using namespaces - then the order is simply
random... ;)

After double checking:

1> This is actually not about elements in a collection, but child elements. subtag1, subtag2 and subtag3 are of different complex types
2> The XSD is correctly initialized in the XML and has a different order. The XSD makes heavy use of ComplexType...

I am still confused about this.

Could you please give an example of such a schema? A little one, just the
parent tag and child tag descriptions.

The XSD makes heavy use of ComplexType...

I am facing the same problem.

I have Setting interface

public interface Setting extends DomElement {

  @NotNull
  GenericDomValue<String> getEnv();

  @NotNull
  GenericDomValue<String> getServer();
}

and then I have another interface that extends Setting

public interface OverrideUrl extends DomElement, Setting {

  @NotNull
  @Required
  GenericDomValue<String> getUrl();
}

The Swing components are binded to the DomElement.

The order is 

binder.bind(env)

binder.bind(server)

binder.bind(url)

But once the xml/doc is commited, url appears before env and server. I cannot figure out why

If I change the order of binding, 

binder.bind(server)

binder.bind(env)

binder.bind(url)

Now the server comes above env.. But url still comes at the top.

Is there any annotation that I can add so that url comes in order? 

The xsd is as follows

<xs:complexType name="setting" abstract="true">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="env" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0"/>
<xs:element name="server" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0"/>

</xs:sequence>

</xs:complexType>

and

<xs:element name="override-url" substitutionGroup="setting">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:complexContent>
<xs:extension base="setting">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="url" type="xs:string"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:extension>
</xs:complexContent>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>

Resolved: Turns out @Required elements will always go to the top. In my case, url was marked @required and rest were not.
