Hi Marshall,
thanks for your review please appreciate that all paths must be project
relative,
the output folder is selected incorrectly by the browse dialog and should
be in your sample "foldername", and the project must be set to "projname".
Based on your review I suggest the following changes:
-All paths are relative to the workspace root instead of being relative
to the project.
- The input and output folder can also be located anywhere in the file
system.
- The documentation should say that the output CASes are written in the
xmi format.
I am unsure if we should do the output folder creation.
Do you think that is nice to have even when the browse dialog works
correctly?
Did it work even without uima jars in your project?

ok - I gave it try :-)
I built it, and put the jar into my Eclipse's "dropins" directory.
It seems nice :-) !
A couple of small things:
1) I was surprised when the "input" spec only offered choices within the
"project". It seems that although that's a nice default, the data might be
almost anywhere...
2) For the output - it does offer more choices, but it seems only to locations
within the Eclipse workspace - I wanted to write to some temporary space, and
couldn't specify it then and there - I would have to make up some new Eclipse
workspace project (or use some pre-existing one), and then put a folder for the
output there, ahead of time.
It would be nice to let this pick go anywhere, including the file system, and to
create a new folder right then, if desired.
The documentation doesn't say what format the output is written in.
I made a new folder in another project, and set the output folder in the
launcher to that, using the browse... to pick it. But the configuration
appears invalid - there is an error message at the top saying "The output folder
must be a valid folder or not be set!". The folder is showing as
"\projname\foldername"
Changing the output project name to be the same as the ProjectName for the
launcher made no difference...

No problem, I will wait a little until you gave it a try and then
fix the paths. Please also have a look at the documentation.
Thanks,
