Marshall Schor created UIMA-4530:
------------------------------------

             Summary: make built-in uima types static
                 Key: UIMA-4530
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-4530
             Project: UIMA
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Core Java Framework
    Affects Versions: 2.8.0SDK
            Reporter: Marshall Schor
            Assignee: Marshall Schor
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 2.8.1SDK


UIMA's type system has lots of "built-in" things which are always the same, and must be (for interoperability with C++, etc.).  Yet, these are dynamically created for every type system.  Change this so the built-ins are static kinds of Java things;  this will (among other things) permit the use of codes like booleanTypeCode to be use in Java switch/case statements (they need to be "constant").
