At present, an instance of ConceptMapper can only load one dictionary. You would have to either merge dictionaries into one, or run multiple passes of ConceptMapper, using different configurations. The ability to load multiple dictionaries would be a nice enhancement...

My apologies that my question wasn't clear enough. I am trying to use the ConceptMapper example that was posted on the list a couple of days ago. However, the example came with one dictionary only. I have a need to access
more than one dictionary. So, I created a primitive AE similar to the
ConceptMapperOffsetTokenizer.xml and I added its entry to the aggregate AE OffsetTokenizerMatcher.xml. However, the only dictionary that get loaded when the two primitive ones are listed on the aggregate is the dictionary listed in the ConceptMapperOffsetTokenizer.xml, not the second dictionary that I just created. On the other hand, if I list only one of them in the
aggregate AE, the correct dictionary gets loaded.
To make my long story short, how does a dictionary file get loaded? What sort of parameters that needs to be set and where? Is it possible to load
more than one dictionary?

Thanks,
Ahmed

I should also say that this sort of question is better for the
uima-user list than the developers list.  The developers list is for
people actually working on the framework.

Your question isn't entirely clear, but if you mean that you expect the aggregate analysis engine to produce a CAS with more general annotations
than was produced by the primitive AE's (perhaps because of the
Capabilities), this thread might be helpful:

Hope that helps.

Hello UIMA developers,I am trying to build an aggregate AE engine that uses ConceptMapper and access more than one dictionary. I am not getting any errors, but I am always getting a specific primitive AE results when I list them in the aggregate one. Is there a straightforward way to do
that?
Thanks for your time!
Ahmed
