I created a simple UIMA-AS pipeline comprising a collection reader and an
aggregate AE, which I ran simply like so:
runRemoteAsyncAE.sh tcp://localhost:61616 CollectionReader \
-d <deployment descriptor> \
-c <collection reader descriptor> \
Evidently, the content I wish to process has some non-XML characters in it,
because a certain bit of data raises an exception, the heart of which appears to be:
Caused by: org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: Trying to serialize non-XML 1.0
character: , 0x19
The complete exception is here:
<http://pastebin.com/rMPyAhqP>
The point in my code at which the exception enters the picture
(NoteLinesFromDBReader.java:139) is the point in the .getNext() method where I
get the next CAS:
jcas = aCAS.getJCas();
I don't run into this problem when I use the old-fashioned CPE, so my thinking
is that the CAS from the CR is being serialized before being put into the queue.
Is the expectation in UIMA AS that I sanitize text artifacts of non-XML
characters before the CR gets them? Or am I doing something else wrong perhaps?
Thanks for your help,
Chuck
