Marshall Schor commented on UIMA-5662:
--------------------------------------

Re: "choose between stable addresses and GC on a per-CAS-instance base even 
when working with multiple CASes simultaneously in a single thread".

Both the bit-in-the-CAS and the thread-local approaches would support this 
requirement.  The bit-in-the-cas is obvious - set the bit in the cas for the 
mode and then be careful to use that particular CAS in a way that's aligned 
with that mode.  Make sure the mode is proper if you "check out" a new cas from 
a cas pool, etc.

The thread-local approach would take code that was doing some deserialization 
and surround it with a (e.g.) try-with-resources, setting the proper mode.  
This might be more visible in the code, and the try-with-resources would 
document exact boundaries where this mode was to be in effect.   I'm still 
leaning slightly in favor of this approach.

>          Components: Core Java Framework
>    Affects Versions: 3.0.0SDK-beta
>            Reporter: 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".
