Richard Eckart de Castilho commented on UIMA-2127:
--------------------------------------------------

I have cases where I have a single project containing various pipelines coded 
in Java that write their output to different folders. It would be nice if I 
could include some annotation in the written XMI files that tell the CAS editor 
where to find the type system for that particular XMI file.

Currently when I run one pipeline, I have it afterwards dump it's type system 
to the project root where the CAS Editor can find it. But that means that I 
cannot open XMI files anymore that were created by another pipeline using a 
different type system.

> I think it would be great if the CAS editor could define a CAS type pointing 
> to the type system. CAS consumers could use that type to store a reference to 
> a remote type system (cf. XML schema/DTD) or to a local type system in a 
> location absolute or relative to the XMI file. For example:
> org.apache.uima.caseditor.TypeSystemMetaData
> - location = http://myserver/types.xml
> - location = file:../../typesystem.xml
> - location = file:/home/uima/filesystem.xml
