Richard Eckart de Castilho commented on UIMA-4685:
--------------------------------------------------
I see some risk in conceptually limiting the load(IS, CAS, TS) to form 6 as it
is done in the documentation. If I took that seriously, I'd have to detect the
file format prior to deciding whether I want to load the externalized form
using this signature or using another signature that officially offers
auto-detection. Hence, I'd prefer if the load(IS, CAS, TS) officially supported
auto-detection and the TS parameter would optionally be used for loading form 6
leniently.

> Key: UIMA-4685
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-4685
> Project: UIMA
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: CasEditor, Core Java Framework
> Affects Versions: 2.8.1SDK
> Reporter: Peter Klügl
> Assignee: Marshall Schor
> Fix For: 2.9.0SDK
>
> Attachments: BinaryCasIOUtils.java, caseditor.csv,
> caseditor_bincas.csv
>
>
> Create a new CasIOUtils class having common load and save APIs, with optional
> saving of type system and index definitions, in all the various CAS
> serialization formats (except JSON). Implement heuristic discovery for
> deserialization to support automatic selection of the right kind of
> deserializer. Update the headers for binary to support indicating they have
> the type system included (not used yet). Update the SerialFormat to support
> this. Update the CasEditor and other components to use this new API.
