Maybe it would make things for all easier to make this the default way.
If someone wants to use an annotator he must provide a mapping
between annotator type system
and his own type system.
I think this would also solve your jcas problems, cause jcas types
(classes) are then only
locally known by one annotator.
Hi Jörn,
The issue under discussion is the existing ability to incrementally
define a type in multiple places. For example, the descriptor of
annotator A1 defines a type T with feature F1. Another annotator A2
defines the same type T with feature F2. A UIMA application using both
A1 and A2 will have a type T with two features F1 and F2. Packaging
JCas classes becomes a problem for this situation.
