Hi UIMA users!
I'm processing HTML data. Therefore I have an aggregate AE that does all
kinds of magic using its own type system. As a last component in that
pipeline, I have an AE that spills out plain text into another type
system and a new CAS. What I'm doing is this:
String plaintext = "..." // imagine all kinds of gathering text here
newCas = cas.createView("plaintextSofa");
newCas.setDocumentText(plainText);
Then I can select this new view in the CAS Visual Debugger.
However, other modules that are supposed to operate on plain text
afterwards of course have the _initialView as input. I don't want to
modify these other AEs, I simply want them to have the "plaintextSofa"
as the default. I think this should be possible somewhere in the AE
descriptors, but I don't get it.
Thanks four your comments and assistance.
Best,
Niels
