The CasPool has a constructor

CasConsumerDescription or ProcessingResourceMetaData objects"
A reference of the Collection is passed to fillPool which passes the
Collection
to a CasDefinition constructor which then casts everything to
ProcessingResourceMetaData,
which will result in a ClassCastException in the case of
AnalysisEngineDescription,
CollectionReaderDescription and CasConsumerDescription objects.
Well, when we use generics we get an error.
Good catch, that javadoc does seem to be wrong. I wonder if it was
correct at some point in the past and the code has changed?
Maybe, at least it was not changed through the generics.
