Hi Dave, I'm always happy to see interest in our stuff!
>Step 1 I built the tool to be able to build a dictionary using anything in the umls - snomed, icd9, hpo, etc. so using the veterinary extension shouldn't be a problem. You just add it to the CtakesSources file (or create an alternate file and point to it with -src). To answer another of your questions, there can be zero or more sources - you saw snomedct and snomedct_us (each valid in a different umls version). It also can include any semantic type, just add (or remove) the appropriate tuis in a different data file. >Step 2 You have it right - you copy the templates to another location and output to that location. Otherwise you 'lose' your templates. >Step 3 and 4 The jar is built from source. I need to (soon) check in updates to the source, and at the same time I can check in a default prebuilt .jar The lib/ directory is in the source repository. Various people have toyed with the idea of putting the tool into a ctakes module, putting it into an "installation package", making a gui ... The best option (imo) is probably to make an easy to use gui and keep a pre-built version in sandbox. Someday, after the rainbow, maybe I'll get a chance to do that ...

Thanks, Sean! It's great that cTAKES may soon have an up to date database out of the box. Hopefully it will cut down on the need for many to build their own DB's. Thank you much for doing that. Unfortunately, I still will need to build a custom one for us. I work in veterinary medicine so I need to add in the veterinary extension for SNOMED-CT into the database. I looked over the steps below that Brandon included and have some questions: step 1 says to "Change /data/default/CtakesSources.txt from "SNOMEDCT" to "SNOMEDCT_US". The file that I have has two lines in it. First line is SNOMED, second line is SNOMEDCT_US. So this step doesn't really make sense. step 2 should reference the two scripts as being in resource/memdbtemplate so others don't have to search for them. Not sure what it means to move them to "location to put new UMLS DB". Does that mean move them into a new directory where the newly created UMLS DB will get written? steps 3 and 4 for running the tools reference dictionarytool.jar which doesn't exist. Does one need to build that somehow from the source before running it? The command line also adds "lib/*" to the classpath. Is that the lib directory inside the dictionarytool source code or some other location? What else would I need to do to include the SNOMED-CT Veterinary Extension along with the snomedct and rxnorm sources? I'll probably not have time to try this out for a while yet, but when I do I'd be happy to write up an easy to follow tutorial for building a custom dictionary assuming I am able to get it to work. Has anyone considered making this tool available outside of the source code itself? Like including it in the main cTAKES release? It seems there is demand for it. - Dave On Tue, Dec 8, 2015 at 3:22 PM, Finan, Sean < sean.fi...@childrens.harvard.edu> wrote: > Hi Brandon, thanks for finding and forwarding the instructions! > > I have checked in two new hsqldb dictionaries, both from the 2015AB > version of the UMLS.
