Re: I'm developing an application able to setup a workflow and run it ...

Sounds like you want CPE1 that processes a collection of documents and
creates a new collection, which would then be fed into CPE2. Is that it? If
so, why not extend CPE1 to include the processing of CPE2? If my
understanding is wrong, can you give more details on the scenario?

Eddie

Eddie, thanks for the quick answer: the scenario is the follow: I have a
proprietary workflow in which just the first node is an UIMA CPE.

input----> UIMA CPE ----> third part node 2 ----> third part node 3
--->......

I need to pass the UIMA CPE produced results to the next node.

Regards.

I can think of two options:

a) wrap the other nodes into CPEs

b) use a CAS consumer that takes the results of the UIMA CPE
and feeds it into your other workflow.
(you'd have to convert the data in the CAS on your own,
but there are mechanisms for serialization into XML that
might help you.)

Dear all,

I tried to use a StatusCallbackListener object to send the results of the
UIMA process to my own application.

In the following I report a little example:

*public class MyApplication implements StatusCallbackListener{

**public void entityProcessComplete(final CAS cas, final EntityProcessStatus
status)
{
<...manage output indexed into the Cas object...>
}


*
*public void start(){
*
*CpeDescription cpeDescriptor =
UIMAFramework.getXMLParser().parseCpeDescription(n ew
XMLInputSource(xmlConfigurationFile.getValue().get AbsolutePath()));
*
*
*
*final CollectionProcessingEngine mCPE =
UIMAFramework.produceCollectionProcessingEngine(cp eDescriptor);
*
*
*
*mCPE.addStatusCallbackListener(this);
*
*
*
*mCPE.process();
*
*}
*
*}*

The UIMA CPE descriptor contains a Collection Reader, an Analysis Engine and
a CAS Consumer.
Could this be a good idea? I'm having some problem maybe with the listener:
I obtain not expected null annotations value. Could the reason is a bad
implementation of the Listener?

Hi All,

The hotfix for UIMA v2.2.2 is shipped as a replacement uima-core.jar and
fixes a number of memory issues. Unfortunately this is of no use to our
product since we use the UIMA runtime plugin which does not use
uima-code.jar but instead uses something else containing the same class
files.

How can we obtain the UIMA runtime plugin with this hotfix?

Best Regards,
Ahmed

Hi -

The memory fixes are

UIMA-1067: Remove char heap/ref heap in StringHeap of the CAS
UIMA-1068: Use of the JCas cache should be configurable

To use these you have to update the jar for the plugin. You can use the
"jar" command which comes with Java to do this. Here are the steps:

1) get the hot fix
2) unzip it (it's a zip file). If you unzipped the hot fix into
directory DDD, there should be a folder in DDD called "org"
3) update the original plugin, using the command

jar -uvf path-to-org.apache.uima.runtime_2.2.2.incubating.jar -C
path-to-dir-where-you-unzipped org

Of course, change the "path-to-...." to be the paths described.

This command will update the jar file using the files from the hot fix.

Hope that helps. -Marshall
