Description

The attached patch contains an Extension to the UIMA-Ruta Framework.
In this Extension i added the following Stringfunctions (in RUTA terminology those that return a String):

• replaceAll
• firstCharToUpperCase
• replaceFirst
• substring
• toLowerCase
• toUpperCase

Additionally i coded some further useful Functions of the java String library that return booleans:

• contains
• endsWith
• startsWith
• equals
• equalsIgnoreCase
• isEmpty

All of the mentioned Functions were tested and got their own jUnit-test included.
I hope it will be accepted and the functionality added in the next release
