Thanks, That’s a possibility, although I was hoping I wouldn’t have to resort to that - it feels like a bit of a hack. James On 24 Jul 2014, at 19:05, Burn Lewis wrote: > Perhaps you could add a generic "parameters" parameter to > MyCollectionReader and then override it in your CPE with a val

Perhaps you could add a generic "parameters" parameter to MyCollectionReader and then override it in your CPE with a value appropriate to the specified classname, e.g. such as folder - /opt/test classname - test.MyContentExtractor parameters - baseUrl=http://www.example.co

Hi Armin, I have absolutely no idea. I have rarely encountered this problem. Actually the only source of this that I remember is the use of the (de)serialization based on CASSerializer and/or CASCompleteSerializer (via CASImpl.reinit(...)). Nothing related to this should have changed from uimaF

I think you’ve misunderstood my question - I’m not asking whether I can override defined parameters, I’m asking if I can provide additional configuration parameters that aren’t defined in a descriptor file. Let me give an example: MyCollectionReader.xml defines the following properties:

Hi Richard! It looks like your absolutely right. I have changed all JCas stuff in the consumer's resource to pure CAS and it works. But why is JCas support not initialized? The reader calls an annotator for document meta data that uses JCas. It says "new DocumentMetaData(cas.getJCas())" and ac

Hi Armin, the underlying problem is that you get a simple org.apache.uima.cas.impl.AnnotationImpl instead of a JCas class like de.tudarmstadt.ukp.dkpro.core.api.ner.type.NamedEntity. Normally a CAS that has its JCas support initialized always returns JCas classes. But is is possible to work ent

A CPE descriptor can override configuration parameters defined in any integrated components. Documentation a little bit below http://uima.apache.org/d/uimaj-2.6.0/references.html#ugr.ref.xml.cpe_descriptor.descriptor.cas_processors.individual 3.6.1.2. Element This element provides a way to overri

Hello Richard! Your fix doesn't change anything. So I tried to narrow down the problem. At least, I can tell that it is not a problem specific to DKPro. I have the same kind of exception when not using DKPro at all. My guess now is that it maybe has something to do with chaining resources. I tr

Hi, sounds like the JCas structures are not initialized. Maybe you also use the DKPro Core BinaryCasReader? If so, there was is a bug in DKPro Core 1.6.1 [1]. If you are initializing the CAS yourself or use the UIMA CAS serialization methods directly, then you should be able to fix this issue by
