> Key: UIMA-2379
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-2379
> Project: UIMA
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core Java Framework
> Affects Versions: 2.3
> Reporter: Mike Barborak
> Priority: Minor
>
> Regarding this method on org.apache.uima.jcas.cas.FSArray:
> public void copyFromArray(String[] src, int srcOffset, int destOffset, int length)
> I read in the 2.3.0 documentation, "Description copied from interface: CommonArrayFS. Copy the contents of an external string array into this array. The strings are parsed and converted to floats."
> This seems incorrect.
> It also does not seem informative enough. If I have a feature that is an FSArray of feature structures, what does it mean to copy from an array of strings?
> Related is what it means to copy such an FSArray of feature structures to an array of strings. Is there some contract implied here?
