Forum Post: Package close ordering logic

Hello,

I seem to be having package close ordering issues again.

The general rule seems to be:

if pkg A ref pkg B, then A close before B.
Personally that seems backwards to me, and that is probably because I'm missing something.

I currently have:

1) package A which requires a module in package B

2) package A knows about package B

3) package B is completely independent of package A.

4) package A closes before package B!!!

I have tried adding into package A's package.xdc "requires package B", no effect in close order. I have also tried adding into package B's package.xdc "requires package A", no effect on the close order.

In this instance both package A and B have many modules. There are many modules in package A which use package B modules. No Package B modules reference package A modules.

Thanks
