-----------------------------------
Summary: Always deliver default View to annotator process method
Key: UIMA-3765
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-3765
Project: UIMA
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Core Java Framework
Reporter: Eddie Epstein
Assignee: Eddie Epstein
Currently the CAS view delivered to an annotator's process method depends on
two things: if the annotator declares sofa capabilities, the base CAS view is
delivered; else the default view is delivered.
Based on a recent mailing list discussion, always delivering the default view
would be simpler and more intuitive.
This change in behavior should not break any existing annotator code as the
base CAS view delivered to view aware annotators essentially supports only the
getView method, which will continue to work.
