Marshall Schor commented on UIMA-5662:
--------------------------------------
I'm thinking that the enabler should be on the "topic" of enabling Feature
Structure access using the low level CAS API.
e.g. enable_ll_getFSForRef() or enable_ll_getFSForRef(true/false)
If turned on, and deserialization occurs, the deserializers would use the
externally present FsIDs if available, or their imputed values, if not
explicitly in the serialized form.
This has the advantage of also enabling low level access for FSs created using
new XXX(jcas)i, which could be useful for backwards compatibility These
methods would return an AutoClosable that would restore the previous state.
> uv3 support CAS deserialization subsequent low level access

> Key: UIMA-5662
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-5662
> Project: UIMA
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core Java Framework
> Affects Versions: 3.0.0SDK-beta
> Reporter: Marshall Schor
> Assignee: Marshall Schor
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 3.0.0SDK
>
>
> Some users depend 1) constant v2-ids for FSs preserved in deserialization and
> serialization, and 2) low level cas API access to these.
> V3 normally doesn't maintain tables linking ids to FSs, as these (unless weak
> refs are used) prevent GC of unreachable FSs.
> Based on a mode, set by -Duima.deserialize_perserve_ids, and also
> controllable by new config option per deserialize call, alter the
> deserialization for those deserializers which know about v2 ids, to put these
> into the map used for low-level CAS access, using the actual v2 ids, and
> change the v3 next available id for future new FSs to be 1 beyond the end.
> The -Duima.deserialize-preserve_ids global setting is needed to handle the
> use case of some annotators using low-level APIs, when part of a pipeline is
> "remoted".
