All Known Implementing Classes:

AbstractOrderableValve
```
public interface OrderableValve
extends Valve
```
Orderable valve interface.
When an orderable valve is added into a Pipeline, it can be re-ordered by the execution ordering properties ('beforeValves', 'afterValves', etc.).

The postrequisite valve names configured by 'beforeValves' property is the valve names that should follow this valve. The prerequisite valve names configured by 'afterValves' property is the valve names that should precede this valve. The postrequisite/prerequisite names can have multiple valve names, separated by ' ', ',', '\t', '\r' or '\n'.
