If you a remote SOAP service that is acting as a CAS Consumer, you have to put it into your CPE pipeline wrapped inside an Aggregate Analysis engine. The aggregate can be a container of just one SOAP component (or, if it makes logical sense in your flow - you can add it to the end of perhaps some other aggregate you already have in your pipeline).
Does that answer your question, or did I miss something? -Marshall Baptiste GAILLARD wrote: > Hi Marshall, thanks for your help, > > Can you clarify how you are trying to use a SOAP AE as a CAS Consumer in > >> a CPE descriptor? >> >> > > In fact I was just using the CPE gui tool, I specified in the "Analysis > Engines" part a SOAP AE descriptor and in the "CAS Consumers" part the same > SOAP AE descriptor, it works, no problem ! > > Do you have in the CPE descriptor a <casProcessor ... > element for mode > >> "integrated", which specifies a <descriptor> element which imports a >> SOAP remote descriptor? >> >> If so, that is not supported by the current code - see section 3.6.1.1 >> where it says, for integrated CAS processors, the referenced descriptor >> must be an Analysis Engine Descriptor. >> > > > Yes, I was trying to do that: > > -- CpeDescriptor.xml -- > ... > ... > <casProcessors casPoolSize="3" processingUnitThreadCount="1"> > ... > <casProcessor deployment="integrated" name="WordsFilePrinterSOAP"> > <descriptor> > <import location="WordsFilePrinterSoapService.xml"/> > </descriptor> > <deploymentParameters/> > <errorHandling> > <errorRateThreshold action="terminate" value="0/1000"/> > <maxConsecutiveRestarts action="terminate" value="30"/> > <timeout max="100000" default="-1"/> > </errorHandling> > <checkpoint batch="10000" time="1000ms"/> > </casProcessor> > .... > </casProcessors> > > -- WordsFilePrinterSoapService.xml -- > <uriSpecifier xmlns="http://uima.apache.org/resourceSpecifier";> > <resourceType>CasConsumer</resourceType> > <uri>http://localhost:8070/axis/services/urn:WordsFilePrinter</uri> > <protocol>SOAP</protocol> > </uriSpecifier> > > > If it's not allowed in UIMA for the moment it is normal if it does not work, > ok ;-). > > But, I have only 3 deployment modes: > > >> - >> >> For *remote* CAS Processors, the referenced descriptor must be a >> Vinci *Service Client Descriptor*, which identifies a remotely >> deployed CAS Processor service. >> - >> >> For *local* CAS Processors, the referenced descriptor must be a >> Vinci *Service Deployment Descriptor*. >> - >> >> For *integrated* CAS Processors, the referenced descriptor must be >> an Analysis Engine Descriptor (primitive or aggregate). >> >> So the only solution to use a SOAP services is "integrated" deployment >> > mode , ok. > But I want to use a Cas Consumer SOAP service in my CPE descriptor, is it > possible ?
