I've done some more investigating to discover the same behaviors
show up in Windows XP and on Linux when trying your PEAR with
the PEAR installer as appear in the Uima Component Repository (UCR)
For one thing it points out that there could
be an improvement to the PEAR Installer Users's Guide, namely
that there is no place which tells you how to run it:
$UIMA_HOME/bin/runPearInstaller.sh or
$UIMA_HOME\bin\runPearInstaller.bat
I am curious to know the behavior when trying your PEAR with
the Pear Installer in your Vista environment, does it work OK?
Especially if you UN-set the environment variable SEN_HOME
first. (see below)
For me, I observe two different errors depending on operating system.
I will summarize, and then provide the error output.
For Windows XP/ Java6 there is an error from the initialize method
of your annotator stating that the SEN_HOME environment variable
is not defined, even though I see that it exists correctly in the
file metadata/setenv.txt.
For RedHat Linux/ Java1.5 there is an error about bad .class file
version numbers. I unpacked the jars from your annotator and
verified that they in fact contain signatures for Java version 1.2.
I would expect the error to be more likely if they had been
a higher number, not a lower number than 1.5!
