------------------------------------
Summary: moveTo(fs) where fs > all items in index is broken
Key: UIMA-4094
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-4094
Project: UIMA
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Core Java Framework
Affects Versions: 2.6.0SDK
Reporter: Marshall Schor
Assignee: Marshall Schor
Fix For: 2.6.1SDK
Using moveTo(fs) where the fs is beyond the last element in the index
incorrectly sets the iterator position to the 1st element. It should set the
iterator to (from the Javadocs) ""insertion point" for fs, i.e., to a point
where the feature structure at that position is greater than fs and the fs at
the previous position (if it exists) is less than fs
When the fs is > all the elements in the index should conceptually set the
iterator to 1 past the end of the index, which isValid() will return "false"
for.
Because this change may break user code (in case users have worked around
this), I think this change should be removable under a JVM property flag,
something like uima.keep_wrong_moveTo_behavior.
