I'm utilizing the Force.com ANT migration tool to do deployments between sandboxes.  The issue i'm getting are deploying objects and reports that reference a public group that does not exist on the sandbox.

The deployment that errored does includes the metadatafiles for the public groups.  I would assume that the Force.com ANT migration tool will deploy public group metadata components and then deploy components that reference the public groups, but this is not a case.   I know how to work around the error, but this shouldn't be happening.

Has anyone came across this issue?  Is this a valid bug for the Force.com ANT migration tool?

help in implementing below design requirements using triggers and apex class

1)      Create a ‘after insert’ trigger on the FeedItem object

2)      Create an apex class that has the following method

1. public List<User> getSubscribedUsers(FeedItem feed)

3)      Use the class in step 3 with the trigger from step 1 to generate the list of users subscribed to the case record

4)      Create any additional method in step 2 as needed
