>                 Key: UIMA-589
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-589
>             Project: UIMA
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Eclipse plugins
>    Affects Versions: 2.2
>         Environment: Windows XP, Eclipse 3.2.1, JDK 1.6.0_01
>            Reporter: Andy Schlaikjer
>            Assignee: Marshall Schor

> Within the 2.2.0 distribution documentation here:
> docs/html/tutorials_and_users_guides/tutorials_and_users_guides.html#ugr.tug.mvs.naming_views_sofas
> ..it states that..
> """
> You can specify a variable number of input or output sofa names, where each name has the same base part, by writing the base part of the name (with no periods), followed by a period character and an asterisk character (.*). These denote sofas that have names matching the base part up to the period; for example, names such as base_name_part.TTX_3d would match a specification of base_name_part.*.
> """
> I interpret this to mean that valid Sofa names may be suffixed with one period followed by an asterisk. Unfortunately, the Analysis Engine Descriptor file editor in Eclipse disallows all periods and asterisks from Sofa names.
> To reproduce:
> 1. Create a new "Analysis Engine Descriptor File" via Eclipse "New..." dialog
> 2. View the "Capabilities" tab
> 3. Click "Add Sofa" button
> 4. Within "Sofa Name" text field, attempt to type "Document." (period at end)
> 5. Observe that the dialog disallows the period
