Hi, Thanks for your reply !
But I am wondering if somebody has run cTakes using SPARK and actually succeed. If yes, some resources/examples would be really helpful. Budha I tried building SPARK with cTAKES, however the when i execute a sime HelloWorldAnnotator.java function it threw exceptions, which is suspect is because the example was written a long back and doesn't comply any more with the current libraries.
