------------------------------------
Summary: make built-in uima types static
Key: UIMA-4530
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-4530
Project: UIMA
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Core Java Framework
Affects Versions: 2.8.0SDK
Reporter: Marshall Schor
Assignee: Marshall Schor
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 2.8.1SDK
UIMA's type system has lots of "built-in" things which are always the same, and
must be (for interoperability with C++, etc.). Yet, these are dynamically
created for every type system. Change this so the built-ins are static kinds
of Java things; this will (among other things) permit the use of codes like
booleanTypeCode to be use in Java switch/case statements (they need to be
"constant").
