[jira] [Commented] (UIMA-6152) "trim" method for AnnotationFS

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-6152?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17008994#comment-17008994 ] 

Marshall Schor commented on UIMA-6152:
--------------------------------------

A major choice-point could be find/use other Java package for string manipulation methods, instead, with some minimal integration?  For example, google guava (apache 2 license)?

> Usually leading or trailing whitespace is not helpful in text annotations. Thus, it would be nice to have a `trim()` convenience method on AnnotationFS which increases/decreases begin/end such that leading/trailing whitespace is removed from the annotation.
