[jira] [Comment Edited] (UIMA-1524) JFSIndexRepository should be enhanced with new generic methods

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-1524?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15485481#comment-15485481 ]

These sound good.  We could also have the static select methods, too, that either get the cas passed in or infer it from one of the FSs?

Thinking in generalities, we might have:
* static (or cas based) methods to start
* args supplied by builder-like methods for 
** type (two ways: type and Java class)
** all the other varieties as above

The result of this could be universally used for 4 things:
* implementing Collections (like is done in uimaFIT for select)
* the traditional FS Iterator (which goes forwards and backwards, etc.
* streams
* splititerators

> Existing methods should be overloaded with an additional Class argument to specify the exact return type. This changes make down casting of returned objects unnecessary.
