Richard Eckart de Castilho commented on UIMA-2903:
--------------------------------------------------

uimaFIT so far accessed the "mResourceMap" in the ResourceMangager_impl. The 
new getExternalResources() method instead compiles a list from 
mInternalResourceRegistrationMap and mParameterizedResourceInstanceMap. All the 
test cases still seem to work when I switch uimaFIT to using 
getExternalResources(), but I wonder if it makes a difference which of the maps 
is used...

> uimaFIT currently gets a list of resources that are registered with a 
> ResourceManager. This is handled via accessing the "mResourceMap" field of 
> the ResourceManager_impl class via reflection. Obviously, this is not a good 
> solution.
> uimaFIT iterates over the resources in the context while initializing 
> resources that are referenced from other external resources.
> There may be two options:
> # add a listResources() method to the ResourceManager interface
> # get the resources that need to be initialized in some other way. I don't 
> know if there is one, because if there was, I'd probably have used it. 
> Looking at the @ExternalResource annotations doesn't help, because they do 
> not give informations about the resource bindings. The bindings are only 
> available in the ResourceManager, which takes us back to 1).
> Would it be possible to add a method allowing to list the resource bindings 
> registered in a ResourceManager to the ResourceManager interface?
