Marshall Schor created UIMA-5160: ------------------------------------ Summary: v3 formalize cas metadata as part of serialized CAS Key: UIMA-5160 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-5160 Project: UIMA Issue Type: New Feature Components: Core Java Framework Reporter: Marshall Schor Priority: Minor
Various kinds of CAS - level metadata are being used in serialized forms. Examples: in some serialized formats, the type system is included; a proposal to have unique identifiers based on OIDs needs the CAS's oid-prefix, and the ability to have the current last-used oid-suffix number for being able to generate subsequent unique IDs. One existing serialization, CASSerializer's addCAS method, has a provision for some cas metadata: details about the current state of the heap. This Jira proposes to formalize some of this into a general way to have metadata added to serialized forms of the CAS. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
