I think what would work for us would be two methods like this:
public FeatureStructure getCopy(FeatureStructure aFS) {
int addr = mFsMap.get(originalSrcCas.getLowLevelCAS().ll_getFSRef(aFS));
return addr != 0 ? originalTgtCas.getLowLevelCAS().ll_getFSForRef(addr) :
null;
}
public int getCopy(int aFS) {
return mFsMap.get(aFS);
}
Since we also have two variants of the alreadyCopied() method, I don't think
the two methods above expose significantly more of the internal structure:
public boolean alreadyCopied(FeatureStructure aFS) {
public boolean alreadyCopied(int aFS) {
I don't mind doing the indexing externally as long as there is some way of
figuring out what is the copied FS given an original FS.
