Peter Klügl commented on UIMA-4480:
-----------------------------------

Yes, this is normal behavior. Some explanation from the UIMa perspective 
without Ruta:
You create a CAs using a specific type system A and then apply an analysis 
engine that uses a type system A+X. When the analysis engine tries to access a 
type of X, it fails. It is not (yet) possible in UIMA to introduce new types in 
an analysis engine.

In your rule example, X is the "person" type. The exception, however, states 
that the rules use an "animal" type that is not present in the type system.

The thing is that you cannot use Ruta.apply() with ruta code continaing declare 
statements this way. The declare statements are ignored when executing ruta 
rules since they would before have had influenced the type system that is used 
to create the CAS. The declare statements are solely used by the ruta workbench 
and the ruta maven plugin for generating the corresponding type system 
descriptors (there is also java code for creating the java object without an 
xml file). These have be considered when the CAs is created, either by using 
them in the creation method or by importing them in the analysis engine that 
creates the CAS.

What you can do depends on your use case and how you create your CAS:
- generate the type system for the script and use it when creating the CAS
- do not use additional types in the rules in Ruta.apply
- do not use Ruta.apply in your Java code

Does this make sense to you?

Any suggestions to improve this situation are welcome.
