Marshall Schor commented on UIMA-5115: -------------------------------------- I agree it's nice to have * coveredBy(sentence) * covering(10, 20) * sameBeginEnd(token) There are other cases. How would you write combinations that use between(fs1, fs2) and coveredBy() etc? * coveredBy(between(fs1, fs2)) // or * coveredBy().between(fs1, fs2); // the builder methods are only partially ordered, so you could put the between following coveredBy, if that made for better readability. I don't have a strong preference, so I would be fine with making "between" an argument of the 3 styles of boundary use; it could easily translate into a equivalent begin / end (unless I'm missing something). The at(...) has another purpose, besides setting a boundary - it can specify a starting position. Shall we keep "at" for that purpose (or rename it "startAt")? > uv3 select() api for iterators and streams over CAS contents > ------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: UIMA-5115 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-5115 > Project: UIMA > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Core Java Framework > Reporter: Marshall Schor > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 3.0.0SDKexp > > > Design and implement a select() API based on uimaFIT's select, integrated > well with Java 8 concepts.
