Christine, I took another look at this and tested the code. You are right, the listener's batchProcessComplete() is not called no matter what the batchSize is set to.
I think the real intent for the <Checkpoint...> element within <CpeConfig...> is to define a checkpoint file and frequency of checkpoints. The CPE saves its progress i(stats) in the file for possible recovery from a failure. There is a brief description of this in UIMA reference guide at the bottom of section 3.7: http://uima.apache.org/d/uimaj-2.3.1/references.html#ugr.ref.xml.cpe_descriptor.descriptor.operational_parameters Since your listener entityProcessComplete() is called you can manage batching yourself. This method is guaranteed to be called by the CPM. The real intent behind the batchProcessCompleteI() is to improve performance of CasProcessor(s), especially a CasConsumer. You can set up <Checkpoint ...> element for each CasProcessor in the Cpe descriptor and define batchSize. The CPM will (and it does) call batchProcessComplete in this case. I ran a quick test to make sure and can say that it does work. Perhaps we need to document this better to make it clearer but at this point I think the CPM is working as designed. Feel free to disagree. :) Jerry On Thu, Aug 2, 2012 at 3:20 AM, Christine Engelmann <chr.engelm...@gmx.net>wrote: > Hi, > > thank you.
