Marshall Schor commented on UIMA-4687:
--------------------------------------
For UIMA V3 JCas, we could add some static final constants for the type and
feature names:
{code}
public final static String _TypeName = "pack.age.name.Sentence"; // new static
final string constants added
public final static String _FeatName_xxxx = "xxxx"; // for features
// allows
@TypeCapability( // use example
inputTypes = {
@Type(Sentence._TypeName ),
@Type(value=Token.class, features={Token._FeatName_pos ,
Token._FeatName_lemma})})
{code}
{code}
@Type(Sentence._TYPE_NAME)
{code}
Would this satisfy the needs you envisioned here and in UIMA-2147?
> UV3 improve JCas feature id use for index corruption checking and journaling

>
> When setting (changing) values for features, sometimes index corruption
> checking needs to be done, and sometimes changes need to be journaled. Both
> of these need to identify the feature involved. This operation should be
> fast and memory-cache-friendly (e.g. not involve following a long chain of
> dereferencings).
> Add static final fields that represent features used by a particular JCas
> class, which have names derived from the short-feature-name, and won't
> collide with other names, and set these using the same JCasRegistry mechanism
> to unique values within a class loader. This allows the same JCas cover
> classes to be used with different type systems.
> Change the corruption testing logic to use BitSets and have a version which
> uses these indexes as well as one which uses the FeatureImpl featureCode.
> Keep one extra table mapping these codes to FeatureImpls, per type system.
