most likely this is a problem in building the parameter setting.
I did one of these using the Eclipse editor for UIMA XML files, and looked at
what it generated as the setting:
<configurationParameterSettings>
<nameValuePair>
<name>astringarray</name>
<value>
<array>
<string>x1</string>
<string>x2</string>
</array>
</value>
</nameValuePair>
</configurationParameterSettings>
Have you tried creating NameValuePair_impl instances, with arrays as the 2nd
argument (i.e., the "value")?
for instance:
... new NameValuePair_impl("AttributeList", new String[] {"value1", "value2",
...}) ...
