[jira] [Created] (UIMA-6160) Single int arg version of select.startAt()?

Richard Eckart de Castilho created UIMA-6160:
------------------------------------------------

             Summary: Single int arg version of select.startAt()?
                 Key: UIMA-6160
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-6160
             Project: UIMA
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: UIMA
    Affects Versions: 3.1.1SDK
            Reporter: Richard Eckart de Castilho


If one wants to start looking for a particular annotation at a given character position, then I think it would be convenient to be able to say "select(Token.class).startAt(offset)", instead of having to say "select(Token.class).startAt(offset, offset)".

What is not clear to me from reading the documentation is whether a Token which *ends* at offset would be returned or not. 

Another special case which is not clear by the documentation is whether a Token which *starts and ends*  at offset would be returned.
