## Interface CasDataInitializer

- All Superinterfaces:
    ConfigurableResource, Resource
  All Known Implementing Classes:
    CasDataInitializer_ImplBase

  Deprecated.
  As of v2.0, CAS Initializers are deprecated. A component that performs an operation like HTML detagging should instead be implemented as a "multi-Sofa" annotator. See org.apache.uima.examples.XmlDetagger for an example.

      @Deprecated
      public interface CasDataInitializer
      extends ConfigurableResource

  A component that takes an Object (for text analysis applications, this will often be a String) and creates a `CasData`.

  An example of a `CasDataInitializer` would be a component that takes an HTML document and populates a CasData with the plain (detagged) text as well as document structure annotations that were inferred from the locations of certain HTML tags (paragraphs and headings, for example).
