Philip Ogren commented on UIMA-1983:
------------------------------------

If I define a type called MyAnnotation in a type system descriptor file, then 
MyAnnotation.java and MyAnnotation_Type.java can be generated.  

The following can be compiler warnings in Java 1.5:

MyAnnotation.java: 

- The field MyAnnotation.typeIndexID is hiding a field from type Annotation
- The field MyAnnotation.type is hiding a field from type Annotation

Both of these can be ignored with "@SuppressWarnings("hiding")"

MyAnnotation_Type.java:

- The field MyAnnotation_Type.featOkTst is hiding a field from type 
Annotation_Type
- The field MyAnnotation_Type.typeIndexID is hiding a field from type 
Annotation_Type

Both of these can be ignored with "@SuppressWarnings("hiding")"

When compiling with Java 1.6, I get the following additional warnings:


org.uimafit.type.MyAnnotation.readObject() - Empty block should be documented

This one can be fixed by simply adding a comment to the code block such as 
"/*generated code */"

org.uimafit.type.AnalyzedText.getTypeIndexID() - The method getTypeIndexID() of 
type AnalyzedText should be tagged with @Override since it actually overrides a 
superclass method

This one can be fixed by adding the "@Override" annotation.

org.uimafit.type.AnalyzedText_Type.getFSGenerator() - The method 
getFSGenerator() of type AnalyzedText_Type should be tagged with @Override 
since it actually overrides a superclass method

This one can be fixed by adding the "@Override" annotation.

It may be possible that there are other compiler warnings - but this is what I 
see with my current configuration which is fairly standard, I think.

Thanks.

> When the compiler warnings are set to complain when name shadowing or name 
> conflicts exist, then the source files produced by JCasGen contain many 
> warnings.  It sure would be nice if these files came out pristine rather than 
> having compiler warnings.  Eclipse does not seem to allow for fine grained 
> compiler warning configuration (i.e. to ignore certain warnings for certain 
> source folders or packages) but only works at the project level.    
> Therefore, I must either turn these warnings off for the entire project or 
> must ignore the warnings in the type system java files.  
> I'm guessing that this is a side effect of an intentional design decision (re 
> eg typeIndexID) and so I am not that hopeful that this can be fixed but 
> thought I would ask anyways.  
> Thanks,
