------------------------------
> Need getViewIterator() method to work with a variable number of views

> Key: UIMA-465
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-465
> Project: UIMA
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core Java Framework
> Affects Versions: 2.2
> Reporter: Eddie Epstein
> Assignee: Eddie Epstein
> Fix For: 2.2
>
>
> Based on user feedback, a common design pattern is for an annotator to want
> to process a set of Views in a CAS. Currently user code can do this using
> getSofaIterator() and testing each SofaFS to see if it matches the
> requirement. A simpler approach is to have a new method:
> Iterator getViewIterator(viewname)
> where viewname represents a Sofa name prefix. As with Sofa mapping, this API
> would return all views with names matching viewname.*. Sofa mapping would be
> respected, so "viewname" could be mapped.
