Marshall Schor commented on UIMA-6159:
--------------------------------------
Hmmm, in UIMA v3, I think the only actual supported implementations of Feature
Structures are instances of TOP.
So, I'm thinking we could add a method that takes AnnotationFS arg, and casts
it to TOP... ?
> select.startAt() cannot be called with AnnotationFS argument

> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: UIMA
> Affects Versions: 3.1.1SDK
> Reporter: Richard Eckart de Castilho
> Priority: Major
>
> The method
> SelectFSs<T> startAt(TOP fs);
> Does not accept an `AnnotationFS` instance as argument because AnnotationFS
> does not extend TOP. However, the documentation clearly states that this
> method requires an AnnotationIndex and a "starting position", so I guess it
> only works for subtypes of AnnotationFS?
