Method Detail

getBegin

public int getBegin()

Description copied from interface: AnnotationFS

Get the start position of the annotation as character offset into the text. The smallest possible start position is 0, the offset of the first character in the text.

Specified by:

getBegin in interface AnnotationFS

Returns:

The start position.

See Also:

AnnotationFS.getBegin()

getEnd

public int getEnd()

Description copied from interface: AnnotationFS

Get the end position of the annotation as character offset into the text. The end position points at the first character after the annotation, such that (getEnd()-getBegin()) == getCoveredText().length().

Specified by:

getEnd in interface AnnotationFS

Returns:

The end position.

See Also:

AnnotationFS.getEnd()

getCoveredText

public java.lang.String getCoveredText()

Description copied from interface: AnnotationFS

Get the text covered by an annotation as a string. If docText is your document text and annot an annotation, then annot.getCoveredText().equals(docText.substring(annot.getBegin(), annot.getEnd())).

Specified by:

getCoveredText in interface AnnotationFS

Returns:

String

See Also:

AnnotationFS.getCoveredText()

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class AnnotationBaseImpl

toString

public java.lang.String toString(int indent)

Overrides:

toString in class AnnotationBaseImpl
