------------------------------------------------
Summary: Containment/overlap predicates for AnnotationFS
Key: UIMA-6151
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-6151
Project: UIMA
Issue Type: Task
Components: UIMA
Reporter: Richard Eckart de Castilho
The UIMA cookbook describes how to detect containment/overlap of annotations.
It would be nice to have convenience methods on AnnotationFS for such cases:
* ann.contains(otherAnn)
* ann.overlaps(otherAnn)
* ann.overlapsLeft(otherAnn)
* ann.overlapsRight(otherAnn)
