Hi, uimaj-2.10.3 rc2 is posted and ready for voting.
The issues fixed are here: https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/UIMA/versions/12342083 Major changes are: ----------------- The minimum Java version was changed from 7 to 8. The code and the build was adjusted to work ok using both Java 8 and Java 11. The class loading when using the UIMA Class Loader was modified to include using the Thread's Context Class Loader (if set). Fix included in rc2 to make it behave in a backwards compatible fashion. Fixed some edge case performance issues were fixed. Fixed PEAR installation to no longer lock files. Pear Specifier parameters now passed to the wrapped Analysis Engine. Implemented a destroy() method for ResourceManager which closes its UIMAClassLoader. The source and binary tar/zips are here: https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/uima/uimaj/2.10.3-rc2/artifacts/ The eclipse update subsite is here: https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/uima/uimaj/2.10.3-rc2/uima/ The maven staging repo is here: https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapacheuima-1203/ SVN tag: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/uima/uimaj/tags/uimaj-2.10.3/ Known issue: It appears the Eclipse update site "publish" utility adds .sha1 and .md5 signatures; this might be needed by the Eclipse install-software facility, so I didn't remove them. Built using the latest maven (version 3.6.0), and the latest uima-wide parent pom (version 12). Built using Java 8. Please vote on release: [ ] +1 OK to release [ ] 0 Don't care [ ] -1 Not OK to release, because ... Thanks. -Marshall
