Peter Klügl updated UIMA-2438:
------------------------------

    Description: TextMarker rules are only able to test on the exact values of 
features. Especially for string features, a more flexible way to compare or 
test string values (e.g., with regular expressions) is desirable. This 
functionality can easily be added if the REGEXP condition also works on string 
variables instead of only for the matched text. The value of a string feature 
can therefore be stored in a variable, which is then evaluated with a condition 
in another rule.
