Hi, Thanks for the quick answer.

My need is quite simple, a component I develop work on some types passed to the component in parameter. I retrieve the type from its name passed in parameter with a simple : Type mMonType = cas.getTypeSystem().getType(theParameterTypeStr); ... and I check it is not null before using it. Now I use some generic classes (java generics) for my processing and I need to "configure" them with the class of the annotation corresponding to this type. That's where I'm lost... I could use a common ancestor like "tcas.Annotation" but I'd prefer to use the correct class. Any hint ? -- Fabien Poulard
