------------------------------------------------
Summary: Initial view for sofa unaware components not
automatically created
Key: UIMA-2419
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-2419
Project: UIMA
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Core Java Framework
Reporter: Richard Eckart de Castilho
When running a sofa-unaware component in an aggregate analysis engine, the
initial view for the component to operate on is not automatically created if it
does not exist. This causes a CASRuntimeException, here "No sofaFS with name A
found.".

I'd consider this a bug, because a sofa-unaware component cannot be expected to
create a view itself. If the sofa-unaware component is the first one in an
aggregate, e.g. acting as a reader, then there is also no other component to
create the view before.
If the initial view of a component it is mapped to does not exist, it should be
the task of the UIMA framework to create this view.
