Peter Klügl commented on UIMA-2347:
-----------------------------------
Yes, I agree and I think nobody that uses TextMarker should have to know about
its actual implementation. The information above is just a documentation for me
(or any other programmer) that there is a quite specific implementation problem.
I always naively thought that StackOverflows only happen in recursions if the
arguments of the method do not change... I was so wrong.

> Key: UIMA-2347
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-2347
> Project: UIMA
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: TextMarker
> Reporter: Peter Klügl
> Assignee: Peter Klügl

> The new implementation of the TextMarker rule inference is now based on
> recursion. Greedy rule elements continue their match on additional
> annotations therefore with a call of continueMatch(). This causes a quite big
> call stack for rules like ANY+ on large documents. Investigate the error.
> Maybe introduce a new method continueOwnMatch that is based on a loop.
