Marshall Schor commented on UIMA-6160:
--------------------------------------

Assuming you were iterating in the forward direction, that is correct, because 
the starting position would be after that Token.

> Single int arg version of select.startAt()?

>             Project: UIMA
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: UIMA
>    Affects Versions: 3.1.1SDK
>            Reporter: Richard Eckart de Castilho
>            Priority: Major

> If one wants to start looking for a particular annotation at a given 
> character position, then I think it would be convenient to be able to say 
> "select(Token.class).startAt(offset)", instead of having to say 
> "select(Token.class).startAt(offset, offset)".
> What is not clear to me from reading the documentation is whether a Token 
> which *ends* at offset would be returned or not. 
> Another special case which is not clear by the documentation is whether a 
> Token which *starts and ends*  at offset would be returned.
