------------------------------------
Summary: UIMA CasIOUtils enhancements in handling type systems
Key: UIMA-5135
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-5135
Project: UIMA
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Core Java Framework
Reporter: Marshall Schor
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 3.0.0SDKexp, 2.9.1SDK
A recent Jira UIMA-5120 was logging CASs to file system directories, and
including a type system.
It would be good to have a conventional,supported way to do this common kind of
operation, added to CasIOUtils.
Additionally, it would be good to support as an alternative the standard XML
serialization format for type systems.
Some possible conventions:
* multiple cas files, in 1 directory, with one additional file with the name
"typesystem.xml".
* the above style, in one zip file (for example, to be able to read it, one cas
at a time, via some iterator).
* finding a type system via the class path following uimaFIT conventions
It would be possible of course to support multiple conventions. However, the
more conventions, the less benefit from "standardization", so this ought to be
a balance.
