Marshall Schor commented on UIMA-5043:
--------------------------------------

Since the UimaContextHolder has two classes of methods, one for use by Users, 
the other for UIMA framework internal use only, perhaps this should be 
reflected in the API / class / interface design?  This could be done by 
following the UIMA style of having a user-facing Interface API with just those 
methods intended to be stable and for users, and having an implementation class 
(e.g. UimaContextHolder_impl) in a package with a name part of .. internal .. 
or .. impl .. (so that the semantic versioning code knows to exclude it) having 
the internal-use only methods as well as the implementation of the user-facing 
ones?

> The framework loads the external override settings and uses them in any 
> configuration parameter that has an external override name attached,  Users 
> have asked for the ability to access these values directly without the 
> indirection of configuration parameter entries in descriptors.  Currently the 
> complete Settings object that holds all the external override settings loaded 
> by the framework is accessible via UimaContextAdmin.
> An improvement would be to allow individual values to be read using a method 
> in the UimaContext interface, perhaps: 
> String getExternalOverride(String name)
> String[] getExternalOverrideArray{String name)
