Interface NonTerminalConsumer

All Superinterfaces:

org.apache.uima.collection.CasConsumer, org.apache.uima.collection.base_cpm.CasObjectProcessor, org.apache.uima.collection.base_cpm.CasProcessor, org.apache.uima.resource.ConfigurableResource, org.apache.uima.resource.Resource

public interface NonTerminalConsumer
extends org.apache.uima.collection.CasConsumer

Extends the CasConsumer interface to provide a method for getting output in XML form. A regular CasConsumer is "terminal" in the sense that its output does not get returned to object that initiated the CasConsumer. This interface allows for "non-terminal" behavior so that the output can be returned.
