Hi Thilo, This looks very promising actually. Are you saying that I don't need JCasGen to generate the type systems and I can do that as demonstrated in the examples?
Here is what I am trying to get to run: In the uimaj-examples application, folder ex1 there is a NumberAnnotator.xml that refers to TypeSytem org.apache.uima.tutorial.Number. This assume that I have to generate this type using JCasGen so when the NumberAnnotator AE is called it finds the Number TypeSystem. In JRuby I don't have the luxury of using JCasGen to generate the TypeSystems. If I can point the AE to a more generic built-in system then I don't have to worry about the JCasGen process. This is what I meant "bypassing" the generation process. This is what I am trying to do. I am attaching a JRuby example so that you have an idea what I am trying to do. Thank you very much, Ahmed On Fri, Aug 7, 2009 at 3:59 AM, Thilo Goetz <[email protected]> wrote: > Ahmed Abdeen Hamed wrote: > > Hello, > > We have a need in my team to use JRuby to access UIMA API's.
