Richard Eckart de Castilho commented on UIMA-3097:
--------------------------------------------------
Well, I was thinking "IterablePipeline" in contrast to "SimplePipeline".
Another idea I had was adding method
{code}
JCasIterable iterate(CRD, AED...)
{code}
to SimplePipeline.
"Linguistically", I would read "IterablePipeline" as "pipeline I can iterate
over" like "potable water" is "water I can drink".
> Split JCasIterable into iterable and iterator parts

> The JCasIterable is an Iterable and an Iterator at the same time. The
> iterator() method returns just "this". This goes against the expectation that
> an Iterable should return a fresh iterator when iterator() is called.
> JCasIterable should therefore be split. The JCasIterable should only be
> creatable with descriptions.
> Calling iterator should create a new JCasIterator which then is based on
> concrete reader and AE instances.
