Apache UIMA Java sdk 3.0.0 released

[Marshall Schor]

The Apache UIMA team is pleased to announce the release of the Apache UIMA Java
SDK, version 3.0.0.  This is the first release of a major re-implementation of
the UIMA Java SDK, aligning it with Java 8 and high performance multi-core
processors.

Apache UIMA  is a component architecture and framework
for the analysis of unstructured content like text, video and audio data.

This release is a major rewrite of the internals of core UIMA, and
includes many new features, including:
 -- support for arbitrary Java objects in the CAS
 -- New semi-built-in UIMA types: FSArrayList, FSHashSet, IntegerArrayList,
Int2FS map
 -- New "select" framework integrated with Java 8 Streams
 -- Elimination of concurrent modification exception
  while iterating over UIMA indexes
 -- Automatic Garbage Collection of unreferenced Feature Structures
 -- All around better integration into Java 8 idioms and generic typing

See the UIMA News item (
https://uima.apache.org/news.html#05 Mar 2018 ) for more details.

A full description of the new and changed parts is here:
http://uima.apache.org/d/uimaj-3.0.0/version_3_users_guide.html

This release requires Java 8, and is intended to be backwards compatible with
existing Version 2 pipeline code, except for the need to regenerate or migrate
(tooling provided) user-defined JCas class definitions.

Please send feedback via the Apache UIMA project mailing lists.

Re: Warnings after importing uimaj-examples

[Marshall Schor]

Hi Barbara,

In general, the warnings do not matter.

These typically stem from the evolution of Java, for example: adding Generic
Typing to the language. 
Many of the examples have not been updated to take advantage of Generic Typing,
which produces the "raw type" warnings.

Feel free to contribute patches to improve this :-)
