[jdom-interest] Re: ResultSetBuilder class giving xml document in reverse order

[David Kavanagh]

I also noticed the lack of a "ORDER BY" in the SQL statement. Doesn't 
answer the original question, but I think by specifying order in the 
sql, one could be sure of the result order (and accommodate for the 
behavior of RStoXMLBuilder. Anyone have an aswer to why the document 
order isn't matching the result set order?
