You should be able to use ctakes.umlsuser and ctakes.umlspw in the command line or as environment variables. If your shell requires, you can replace the dot with underscore: ctakes_umlsuser ctakes_umlspw

I am embedding cTakes as part of a larger (Java-based) processing program and would like to be able to pass the user’s UMLS username and password when setting up the cTakes API rather than embedding them in UIMA configuration files or having to give them as java vm arguments. E.g., at some place such as a call to ClinicalPipelineFactory.getFastPipeline()g. Is there a way to do this that I have not been able to find? Thank you. —Peter Szolovits
