One requirement of our text mining project is to allow user to specify the regex and corresponding type, uima will parse the text and return found match.
I am wondering whether we can create an Annotator(maybe modify or extend com.commvault.uima.annotator.regex.impl.RegExAnnotator) to accept the regex and corresponding type user spcfied, and run regex match against the text. But checked CasAnnotator_ImplBase class, especially the process(CAS aCAS) method, didn't find any way to pass and read extra parameters. Thanks in advance for any help.
