The LucasCasIndexer should be an Analysis Engine and not a CasConsumer

                 Key: UIMA-1556
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-1556
             Project: UIMA
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Sandbox-Lucas
    Affects Versions: 2.3S
            Reporter: Jörn Kottmann
             Fix For: 2.3S


Right now the LucasCasIndexer is a CasConsumer, but it should be an 
AnalysisEngine to make reuse of the code to create a document
based on a specified configuration easy. With that change a base class could be 
created for AEs which need to process Lucene documents.
One use case for this is the prospective search AE (UIMA-1553).

Beside that, the UIMA documentation suggests to not longer use Cas Consumers.

If we do this change, it should be done before the 2.3.0 release, because it is 
not backward compatible.
