------------------------------------
Summary: index contains and find methods incorrect when index type
has subtypes
Key: UIMA-4352
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-4352
Project: UIMA
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.7.0SDK
Reporter: Marshall Schor
Assignee: Marshall Schor
Priority: Minor
The Javadocs in FSIndex (the general interface for UIMA index implementations)
has two methods, contains(FeatureStructure) and find(FeatureStructure), which
state the obvious definition. UIMA Indexes are over some Type and its
subtypes. The current implementation of these methods only check the topmost
Type of that index, and ignore subtypes. So, for instance, if you have an
index over type T, and add-to-indexes a subtype of T, and then ask if the index
contains that one, implementation only checks the top-most "type", and
incorrectly returns false. Find also fails in the same way.
