Marshall Schor commented on UIMA-1524:
--------------------------------------
These sound good. We could also have the static select methods, too, that
either get the cas passed in or infer it from one of the FSs?
Thinking in generalities, we might have:
* static (or cas based) methods to start
* args supplied by builder-like methods for
** type (two ways: type and Java class)
** all the other varieties as above
The result of this could be universally used for 3 things:
* the traditional FS Iterator (which goes forwards and backwards, etc.
* stream
* splititerator
> JFSIndexRepository should be enhanced with new generic methods
