Richard Eckart de Castilho commented on UIMA-5032:
--------------------------------------------------
Why don't you just programmatically compose your pipelines? Depending on dev vs
production, you can include certain components or not.
Alternatively, if you want a component to act lazily, you could simply not
implement the initialize() method and instead in the process() method do
something like "if (!initialized) { lazyInitialize() }".

> Feature toggle is a useful technique to have a single source stream for both
> production and development activities. One approach for UIMA to help support
> feature toggle would be to do component initialization only on the first
> process call. Lazy initialization would allow flow controller configuration
> to easily turn components on and off.
