There are nine really important views. The other views are maybe usful
but not essential.
Generic:
- selection (uimaj-ep-cev)
- annotationBrowser (uimaj-ep-cev) The CAS Editor has a similar one,
but this one has a text field for filtering types, useful when there
are more than 50 types.
I suggest that we enhance the Annotation Editors Outline view to be able
to replace the annotation browser. The selection view could maybe added
directly to the Cas Editor. I need to find out how it works.
Type-Specific:
- apply, element, matched, failed of the explain views
(uimaj-ep-textmarker-addons) for visualizing the rule execution.
- fn, fp and tp of the testing views (uimaj-ep-textmarker-addons) for
visualizing the testing results.
These we need to migrate and make Cas Editor views out of them. Are they
all showing information from the CAS which is
currently visible?
And there is another thing I already mentioned somtime: We would also
need the possibility add additional plugins that display and create
annotations. They are application-specific, but very important for
some latest projects. The CEV plugin has an extension point in order
to initiate the communication between the plugins, but I don't know if
the current solution is optimal.
That is already possible, a user can just contribute an eclipse view
which can then access (or modify via CAS API) the contents of the currently
opened CAS. I wrote one for a project I am doing, there a user can
modify a FS by marking check boxes instead of using the generic
Cas Editor views.
