Marshall Schor commented on UIMA-4554:
--------------------------------------
I did some more investigation. It turns out that a change was made a long time
ago (June, 2007) as part of UIMA-386, that made the generation of the
fsGenerator code by JcasGen superfluous. Individually created generators were
replaced by a generic one. You can see evidence of this by looking in the
following spots: FSClassRegistry lines 185 +, JCasImpl lines 800 + (the
replacement), TOP_Type line 91, etc.
So, except perhaps for some unforeseen issues around compatibility with classes
that extend these, we could remove these entirely...
The TOP_Type keeps these (due to backwards compatibility concerns) but gets
around the raw type and unchecked warnings by changing
{code}
protected FSGenerator getFSGenerator() {
{code} to
{code}
protected FSGenerator<?> getFSGenerator() {
{code}
If that works, I'd recommend that above the suppress warnings, and I'd drop the
generation of the
{code}
private FSGenerator fsGenerator = new FSGenerator() ....
{code} altogether.

> JCasGen generate references to FsGenerator which was changed in 2.8.0 to have
> generic type information. So the resulting generated code causes warnings
> about raw types being used. Workaround - add a
> @SuppressWarnings("rawtypes"), but a better thing would be to add the proper
> generic arguments.
