Generate static fields for type names and feature names in JCas wrappers
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: UIMA-2147
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-2147
Project: UIMA
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Core Java Framework
Affects Versions: 2.3.1
Reporter: Richard Eckart de Castilho
It would be convient if the JCas wrapper generator would create static final
String fields for feature names and for the type name, e.g.
public static final String TYPE_NAME = "my.jcastypes.Type";
public static final String FEAT_BEGIN = "begin";
This would allow cleaner programming with JCas wrappers in cases where the
names are required. In particular it would allow to detect certain errors at
compile-time and facilitate refactoring.
