Marshall Schor commented on UIMA-2147:
--------------------------------------
Which UIMA built-in types have names not equivalent to the CAS type name?
> 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.
