All Superinterfaces:

java.lang.Cloneable, MetaDataObject, java.io.Serializable, XMLizable

All Known Implementing Classes:

TypePriorityList_impl
```
public interface TypePriorityList
extends MetaDataObject
```
Declares a relative priority between CAS types. This object contains a single list of types. One or more TypePriorityList objects can be grouped together to define a complete TypePriorities declaration for a type system.
This object implements MetaDataObject, which implements XMLizable, so it can be serialized to and deserialized from an XML element.
