Are your primitive engines available as PEAR files? That is needed since
only if you have them as PEAR files
you can use the PEAR descriptor.
After you have installed the PEAR files a PEAR descriptor is
automatically generated (located in the install directory). This
descriptor have to
be used in the aggregate to refer to the primitive AEs.

Thanks Marshall for the information and for asking :)
What I have tried is that I have a description of an aggregate analysis
engine which has 4 primitive analysis engine defined. Those primitive AE
descriptions are all fully defined (no imports) under the
"delegateAnalysisEngine/analysisEngineDescription" tag. I do this because
those primitive AE descriptions are generated on the fly. For one thing,
each primitive AE has its own PEAR-compliant directory. In this case, I
could not figure out how to tell UIMA the location those directories.
Excerpt from section 5.8 in the UIMA References page:
"As of version 2.2, the framework supports component descriptors which are
PEAR descriptors. These descriptors define components plus include
information on the class path needed to run them."
Question: To get the individual class loader for each primitive AE defined
in an aggregate AE, do we have to specify/map the PEAR descriptor
(<componentID>_pear.xml?) for each of every primitive AE? If so, where and
how to do it?
Any comments/recommendations would be appreciated.
Thanks,

This should allow you to run a pipeline where each annotator could have
different versions of classes.

Is that what you're trying to do?

Hi Guys,
I'd like to ask a couple of questions regarding the classloader in UIMA
2.2.
For an aggregate analysis engine, is there a way to have/set different
class
loaders for each aggregated primitive analysis engines, so that the
classes
won't interfere each others?
If there is so, could you please shed some light how to do it? I've
looked
into the source code and documentation but no luck :(
Many Thanks,
