Marshall Schor commented on UIMA-6057:
--------------------------------------
I looked at the patch.
It changes the switcher to return a boolean saying if it was switched.
The switch back is augmented to test a passed-in parameter (was_switched) - if
that's set, then the switch back works like before - testing to see if the
previous loader is different, etc.
If the parameter is false, then the switch back won't happen (even if the
previous loader is different).
In the framework code, as you've pointed out, this parameter is not needed, and
is redundant. I presume in some Ruta context, it is set false to block the
switching back. Is that correct?
I'd like to document this as clearly as possible for future maintainers.
