    \brief  Contains class uima::SofaMapping

   Description: A SofaMapping object represents mapping of a Sofa name assigned
                by a component to a Sofa name assigned by an aggregate which could
                be either an aggregate TAE or a CPE. This interface provides methods
                to set the attributes that define a mapping.

                Sofa Name mapping is required to connect the output Sofas from
                one component to the input Sofa of another component.
                This mapping enables the uima::UimaConext.mapToSofaID() method to
                return the SofaID that serves as the handle to a particular Sofa
                in the CAS.

                If the component Sofa Name is not set, it defaults to the Sofa Name
                of the Default Text Sofa. If no mapping is provided, a Sofa Name
                maps to itself.
