Managing deploy list with multiple .properties

Question

During the development process I and other engineers
list the individual beans in the weblogic.properties'
weblogic.ejb.deploy= list. We do this rather than create
one big jar to deploy because it allows for quicker
turnaround. The problem is that we may have more than
one weblogic.properties file and we are adding and
removing beans thus the deployment list
can get out of date in a .properties file.
Other than rolling all the beans into one jar file is there
another way to keep the deploy list in sync across these
various .properties files ? Is there such a thing as a
way to include on .properties file inside another ?
This is in a non-clustered environment.
Thanks,
Marlon

You can still do the sorting through a Comparator
The compare method should take
public int compare(CustomerAddressVO o1, CustomerAddressVO o2) { //..so you can then do
01.getCustomer().getName();
//and
o1.getAddress().getId() together with relevant null checks
