Do we have an abstract high-level summary of the changes in v3 compared to 2.9? I must admit that I am not sure that I would list all major changes but I would just summarize them as internal modernization. There is a lot of information in confluence, but I am not sure if that is all concerning the new implementation. (There is a question about 3.0.0 on the cTAKES mailing list) Best, Peter Am 14.02.2017 um 04:48 schrieb Marshall Schor:Hi, The 2nd alpha release of version 3 of uima-sdk is posted for voting. The main changes: - Eclipse update site is now separate - it's under it's own high-level folder, uimaj-v3-pre-production - the main eclipse update site was updated to include this as an additional subsite. - The "select" framework APIs had javadocs added and some fixes which resulted in API changes for some methods. - Logging was upgraded in two ways: The log4j back end for the UIMA logger was upgraded to log4j 2 (the current version). And, support was added for the slf4j logging facade. - changes made to uimaj-2.9.0 were merged. - Various implementations of UIMA built-in types which have corresponding Java 8 non-boxing versions of methods were augmented to support non-boxing alternatives; see the API changes report for details. - a new report is available (similar to issues fixed) in the source-release and binary distributions called api-change-report.html. ----------- (from the first alpha release vote: ------------- If you happen to use JCas in your pipelines, and have JCas classes other than the standard built-in ones, these classes will need to be regenerated or migrated. If you use the Maven JCasGen plugin to generate the JCas classes as part of your project's build, your good - nothing special need be done. There is a migration tool, and there are scripts to run it, as well as Eclipse launch configurations to run it. The instructions for running this are in a new documentation "book", part of the binary distribution (html and pdf) - it's called the Uima V3 User's Guide. The guide also has an overview section which lists the new features of this release. Many of these need more test cases written for them; I'm happy to mentor any volunteers who want to improve the testing . -------------------- The list of changes in Jira: https://issues.apache.org/jira/issues/?jql=project%20%3D%20UIMA%20AND%20fixVersion%20%3D%203.0.0SDK-alpha02 The source and binary zip/tars and the Eclipse update site are staged to https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/uima/uimaj-v3/uimaj-3.0.0-alpha02/ The eclipse update site is a folder called "uimaj-v3-pre-production" The Maven artifacts are here: https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapacheuima-1123/ The SVN tag is here: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/uima/uimaj/tags/uimaj-3.0.0-alpha02/ and for the Eclipse Update Site: https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/uima/uimaj-v3/uimaj-3.0.0-alpha02/uimaj-v3-pre-production/ Please vote on release: [ ] +1 OK to release [ ] 0 Don't care [ ] -1 Not OK to release, because ...
