Re: newbie questions about UIMA Types

[David Fox]

Thanks for the detailed reply and examples.

I¹ve got some tangentially related questions about types in UIMA C++,
which I hope that either you or someone else can answer:

If you need to use a custom Type in an annotator written with the UIMA C++
SDK, 

1) do you need to define a corresponding custom C++ class (analogous to
the one generated by JCasGen)?
2) if so, is there a comparable CppCasGen, or do you need to write it
manually?

Thanks in advance,
David

newbie questions about UIMA Types

[David Fox]

Does the UIMA Java framework support modifying or extend the java class 
generated by JCasGen corresponding to a custom Type?   If so, are there any 
common circumstances where this is necessary?

I didn’t see anything in the examples or documentation about modifying the 
generated classes, but I also didn’t see anything saying you couldn’t.  I 
suspect that this is not supported (and that otherwise you wouldn’t be able to 
pass a CAS between distributed UIMA AS components, or between a Java annotator 
and a C++ one).  But it would be nice to know for certain.

The reason I ask is that the set of data structures supported by UIMA types 
(individual FS references,  FSList linked lists, and FSArray arrays) is fairly 
limited compared to modern programming languages, which often directly support 
associative arrays, trees, and graphs.  I’m trying to understand whether this 
is a restriction on the implementation of custom types (which it would be if 
modifying/extending the generated class was not supported), or just on the 
public interface accessible via the UIMA API.

Re: UIMA C++ in a Mac

[David Fox]

I tried this a couple of months back and got the same error.

Eventually I gave up on Mac OS X and got it working on linux.  In our
case, we use Mac OS X laptops for testing, but our production environment
is linux, so this wasn¹t a big deal and I didn¹t pursue it further.  If I
really did need to test on Mac OS X, my plan was to install virtual box
and run a linux VM on my Mac laptop.

Re: NullPointerException when RunRemoteAsyncAE tries to unload (UIMA AS and UIMA C++)

That’s odd… now I get

I can’t tell for sure, because the source code in trunk doesn’t match this
latest snapshot, but it looks as if I’m now hitting the else clause from
the if statement containing the code which was generating the previous

Yes, it occurs every time, at the same line in RunRemoteAsyncAE and
