Direct Known Subclasses:

Annotation

public class AnnotationBase
extends TOP
implements AnnotationBaseImpl

the JCas class model for the CAS type uima.cas.AnnotationBase. The AnnotationBase type defines one system-used feature which specifies for an annotation the subject of analysis (Sofa) to which it refers. Various annotation types (including the built-in uima.tcas.Annotation) may be defined as subtypes of this type. uima.tcas.Annotation is a subtype of this type, appropriate for Subjects of Analysis which are text strings. Other (not-built-in) subtypes may be defined for other kinds of Subjects of Analysis. For instance an audio sample Subject of Analysis might define a start and end position as time points in the stream. An image Subject of Analysis might define rectangular coordiantes describing a sub-area of the image. If you are defining a type which needs a reference to the Subject of Analysis (which is view-specific), it should be a subtype of this base type.
