             Summary: Change selectCovered(class, annotation) signature
                 Key: UIMA-2802
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-2802
             Project: UIMA
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: uimaFIT
            Reporter: Richard Eckart de Castilho
            Assignee: Richard Eckart de Castilho
             Fix For: 2.0.0uimaFIT


Change the signature from

{noformat}
selectCovered(Class<T> type, AnnotationFS coveringAnnotation)
{noformat}

to 

{noformat}
selectCovered(AnnotationFS coveringAnnotation, Class<T> type)
{noformat}

Per convention, the thing to select from should be the first argument(s) and 
the following arguments should specify what to select.

Probably also change

{noformat}
selectCovered(JCas jCas, final Class<T> type, AnnotationFS coveringAnnotation)
{noformat}

to 

{noformat}
selectCovered(JCas jCas, AnnotationFS coveringAnnotation, final Class<T> type)
{noformat}

and so on. Probably best to even deprecate/remove the signature with both, JCas 
and coveringAnnotation, because seeking only works when the coveringAnnotation 
is part of the CAS.
