Alexandre Patry commented on UIMA-3303:
---------------------------------------
bq. About strictImport: I would maybe set the default to true, and set it
explicitly to false in Ruta.apply() and friends. Opinions?
I think it is a very good idea, but it breaks backward compatibility. Should we
wait for version 3.0.0 to make this change?
> Add a way to alias types in RUTA (e.g. "IMPORT type AS alias")

> Key: UIMA-3303
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-3303
> Project: UIMA
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: ruta
> Affects Versions: 2.2.0ruta
> Reporter: Alexandre Patry
> Assignee: Alexandre Patry
> Fix For: 2.2.0ruta
>
>
> It would be convenient to define type aliases in RUTA script.
> One scenario where it would help is when many types have the same short name:
> {noformat}
> IMPORT com.example.a.T AS TA
> IMPORT com.example.b.T AS TB
> {noformat}
> For a discussion about it, see UIMA-3292.
