Hi,
We try to do a simple match on two adjacent annotations but for some reason it
dosen’t always work. The rule looks like this:
A B { -> CREATE(C, 2, "prop"="val")};
This work for many documents but not for all. Looking at a failed example
document we can see that B starts exactly where A stops i.e. a.end == b.begin.
Yet, the rule is never fired. Its a view with text content, A and B are our own
custom annotation types, there are no invisible characters or markup in these
particular cases and we set RETAINTYPE(WS, BREAK).
B annotates a period followed by a singe space in these cases whereas A covers
the preceding sentence up to where B begins so I also tried to match on periods
and spaces like this:
A PERIOD SPACE { -> CREATE(C, 2, 3, "prop"="val")};
This didn’t change the outcome.
I appreciate any suggestions to help me find the cause.
Cheers,
Mario
