Forget my last post I was headed completely in the wrong direction.
Okay so I went back to the original issue I had with the maven import of the
regex annotator using the maven import of this svn url:
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/uima/addons/tags/uima-addons-2.3.1/RegularExpressionAnnotator
During import there was a problem with the maven import of the regex annotator,
there was an error with the "uima-build-helper-maven-plugin". I searched the
web for the error and found this Jira for exactly the problem I'm having.
"Eclipse m2e complains about unmapped maven plugins"
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-2560
---------------description from jira---------------------------------------
Recent versions of Eclipse m2e complain about Maven plugins in the UIMA master
pom not being covered by m2e lifecycle plugins:
uima-build-helper-maven-pluginmaven-dependency-pluginAdd m2e metadata to the
master POM to handle these.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm relatively new to UIMA, started working with it a few works ago. I had no
problem installing the UIMA Framework and running through the examples in the
tutorial (just couldn't do the semantic search since it's been removed). By
the way, the documentation provided for UIMA is great along with the getting
started section.
This is the first addon that I've tried to work with and so far I've devoted a
few days already trying to get the regex addon to work, I really would love to
see how it works. Can someone who has been able to get it to work provide some
guidance? I see that the jira was opened in Jan 2013 and resolved this past
April so I don't understand why I'm still getting the problem that was
supposedly resolved. I'm using Juno (eclipse IDE for java developers) with
service release 2 if that helps any.
Thanks.
Regards,
Paula
