While it is easy to write such a program for a given type system, it is actually not so trivial to generically compare CASes to each other. UIMA 3 contains some comparison code which makes specific assumptions (search for CasCompare) and for WebAnno, I also wrote a "CasDiff2" which makes quite a number of assumptions on the type system design. I guess Peter also has this AnnotationComparator and I assume it also is based on specific assumptions. If you have a generic solution at hand, that would be quite interesting. Cheers, -- Richard
