Thanks for pointing out that the messages are not clear - we'll improve
those.
I think this has been fixed in Jira issues:
http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-402 and
http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-462
If you can build the new release from sources, you can test this :-)
If this is still an issue, please supply specific sequence of steps so
we can reproduce.
Thanks. -Marshall

Hi Marshall,
Sorry, but in case we try to build an Aggregate AE including some remote
machines with the Eclipse plugin, the user gets a strong and annoying
problem:
The eclipse plugin gives an error message and lets the user to choose
between 2 (not clear) steps:
- revert to last valid: we do not know what that means and what happens to
the file.
- Edit Existing: we enter an annoying situation in which editing other tabs
becomes impossible...
I apologieze: my last post was not clear: I spoke about the Eclipse Plugin
specifically.

What do you mean by
"we can add a remoteAE if and only if, the AE is already deployed
on the remote machine"
do you use the ComponentDescriptorEditor (CDE) plugin to do that?
In this case, the CDE has to retrieve the meta data of the deployed AE
to get for example the type system data.
The meta data of the deployed AE must be read to check if there are no
conflicts when adding the AE to the aggregate.
This step should prevent errors in the aggregate descriptor early.
However, the CDE is designed to operate, even if the remote is not
running. In that case, it may give some warnings -
saying that it can't read the remote's type system, so that if the
remote is declaring some types that are not declared
elsewhere, then the JCasGen that might be run might be "incomplete".
These are all "warnings" - the CDE will still let you build the
aggregate, and save it.

Hi,
I am trying to build a an Aggregate AE with some AEs running in remote.
When we are building the descriptor for the Aggregate AEs, we can add a
remoteAE if and only if, the AE is already deployed on the remote
machine.
It would be useful if we could add these AEs although if they are not
currently deployed.
