I disagree with Tommaso's advice. You would need maven if you wanted to build UIMA from source, but not if you just want to use the pre-built UIMA jars. If you're not comfortable with eclipse yet, trying to figure out maven at the same time is going to make things even more confusing.

OK, so I'm getting and installing Maven.  You said UIMA uses Maven.  Is
this behind the scenes or do I need to do something special.  I don't
see Maven in the UIMA Tutorial and Developer's Guide.  Can you point me
to the UIMA documentation that discusses Maven?

This is Maven: http://maven.apache.org/index.html
UIMA project use Maven by default, you can also import dependencies
downloading needed libraries by yourself but this is not recommended

Hi Jay, I think this is not the standard way to import libraries in a
UIMA
project,maybe I'm repeating something you already did before: when you
set
into the libraries the UIMA_HOME variable, you have to go into
'extend'
button to select lib/*.jar files into UIMA_HOME.I guess you are not
using
Maven, isn't it?
Best regards,
Tommaso

Hi Jay,
I would like to help.
Could you please give us more info about your OS, JDK version,
etc.
?

If anyone is interested this seems to have taken care of my problem.
I
figured
Eclipse couldn't see the UIMA jar because all of the errors were
UIMA
classes
that couldn't be resolved.  I looked at the Build Path and it has a
Libraries
tab.  It had the JRE and UIMA_HOME.  I thought that should do it but
for
some
reason, UIMA_HOME didn't have the UIMA jar yet the JRE had the java
jars.
 So I
manually added the UIMA jar and all of the errors disappeared.

I'm not an Eclipse guy and I know this isn't an Eclipse forum but
does
anyone
know if this is standard behavior?  Is this the way I'm supposed to
add the
UIMA
jar or is there a more accepted way.  Thanks.

Jay
