I'm not sure of the exact thing needed to get this to fail.  I tried the 
following:

1) define some type system using the CDE.
2) run JCasGen with the button on the CDE
3) modify the generated xxx.java class to add near the bottom:
interface Foo {
   static final int FooInt = 3;
   }
4) Saved that.
5) reran JcasGen after changing the type definition (added a new feature)
6) verified the generated xxx.java file was re-written (by comparing dates)
7) verified that the added interface Foo ... was still there, untouched.

What am I missing?

 Project: UIMA
  Issue Type: Improvement
  Components: Tools
Reporter: Richard Eckart de Castilho
Priority: Minor

 It is possible to customize the code of generated JCas classes, e.g. to add 
 new methods, and these customizations are preserved when the JCas classes are 
 regenerated. However, if custom interfaces are added to the class, these are 
 removed. It would be nice if custom interfaces were preserved, as this opens 
 up additional possibilities of working with JCas classes.

Try adding an interface to the actual type class. Consider this:

{noformat}
…snip...
 * @generated
 */
public class MyAnnotationType 
extends Annotation implements MyInterface
{
…snip...
{noformat}
