Using getSofaDataStream instead of getDocumentText --------------------------------------------------
Key: UIMA-1502 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-1502 Project: UIMA Issue Type: Improvement Components: Sandbox-WhitespaceTokenizer Reporter: Jérôme Rocheteau Priority: Minor I would like to known if it could be better to get the CAS text content by calling the getSofaDataStream method of the CAS class instead of getting it by the getDocumentText one. Actually, CAS sofas can be set either by calling the setSofaDataString method (aka setDocumentText), or by calling the setSofaDataArray one, or by calling the setSofaDataURI one. However, the getDocumentText method (aka getSofaDataString) provides the content of CASes whose sofas are only set by the first method whereas the getSofaDataStream method retieves content whatever the called method. A method able to get String from an InputStream is then needed. Am I wrong in thinking it's an Improvement? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
