I am running into issues when going through the good old old example
instructions included with UIMA 2.22.
I am posting to draw attention to these, in case they need attention. Also,
they may bring up other issues which are worth discussing here.
Here is one: if I want to add the sources to the jar files, there is a
"bat" file, in the unzipped source code directory. It basically just runs
the java jar command for the source jars.
cd jVinci\src\main\java
jar %UIMA_HOME%\lib\jVinci.jar *
On Windows, you will certainly get an error, saying 'no 'jar' command on
this system.'
Problem 1. The script just calls the jar command, instead of calling java
-jar. I don't know when that has ever worked - certainly it has been many
years ago. Currnelty (JDK 1.6.0_13_b03), you need to use the java -jar
command
cd jVinci\src\main\java
java -jar %UIMA_HOME%\lib\jVinci.jar *
Even fixing this does not solve all problems - there is still an error
about not finding the Manifest. Note: it is not a problem with JAVA_HOME
or the system wide recognition of Java. Here is my DOS screen for a
series of commands:
C:\apache-uima\uimaj-2.2.2-incubating>java -fullversion
java full version "1.6.0_13-b03"
C:\apache-uima\uimaj-2.2.2-incubating>java -jar
Usage: java [-options] class [args...]
(to execute a class)
or java [-options] -jar jarfile [args...]
(to execute a jar file)
where options include:
-client to select the "client" VM
-server to select the "server" VM
-hotspot is a synonym for the "client" VM [deprecated]
The default VM is client.
-cp <class search path of directories and zip/jar files>
-classpath <class search path of directories and zip/jar files>
A ; separated list of directories, JAR archives,
and ZIP archives to search for class files.
