I tried using CAS Multiplier. For most part it was working (e.g. when using in a SimplePipeline.runPipeline, CpePipeline.runPipeline). But when I tried to use it in CollectionProcessingEngine, it only produced 1 CAS, instead of the few CASes that were supposed to be produced from 1 input document. Here are my steps: a. create CR description "readerDesc" to read in a text file b. create AnalysisEngineDescription "simpleTextSegmenterDesc" for SimpleTextSegmenter.class create AnalysisEngineDescription "casConsumerWriterDesc" to write CAS into XMI files c. AggregateBuilder aggregateBuilder = new AggregateBuilder(); aggregateBuilder.add(simpleTextSegmenterDesc); aggregateBuilder.add(casConsumerWriterDesc); AnalysisEngineDescription aaeDesc = aggregateBuilder.createAggregateDescription() aaeDesc.getAnalysisEngineMetaData() .getOperationalProperties().setOutputsNew CASes(false); c. CpeBuilder builder = new CpeBuilder(); builder.setReader(readerDesc); builder.setAnalysisEngine(aaeDesc); e. CollectionProcessingEngine cpe = builder.createCpe(StatusCallbackListener); f. cpe.process(); I only got 1 XMI produced instead of the few that I expected. Is CAS Multiplier usable in CPE? According to the documentation, I need to wrap it in a Aggregate AE with
