Hello,
i had a review on the documentation and i still wonder if such things
can be done:
<typeDescription>
<name>uima.cpe.DocumentMetadata</name>
<description>This is a Type to add all Metadata to a document
that is defined</description>
<supertypeName>uima.tcas.DocumentAnnotation</supertypeName>
<features>
<featureDescription>
<name>DB_ID</name>
<description>THE DATABASE ID</description>
<!--IMPORTANT HERE -->
<!--IMPORTANT HERE -->
<rangeTypeName>org.bson.types.ObjectId</rangeTypeName>
<!--IMPORTANT HERE -->
<!--IMPORTANT HERE -->
</featureDescription>
</features>
</typeDescription>
Thanks for clarification
Andreas

Hello,
right now i'm wondering if it is possible to define a type in the type editor,
which is not of a primitive from uima. Instead i want to give it a Class which
represents a Database Id.
Is it possible to assign other SuperTypes than those in uima.tcas namespace?
The uima types can have arbitrary supertypes, but the supertype chain eventually
has to inherit from uima.cas.TOP. See
