Dear UIMA list,
I've read the different tutorials about resources a couple of times but
haven't found a straightforward way to accomplish what I'm trying to do.
Using UIMAfit, I declare a resource and use it in several AEs, through
a SimplePipeline. Once the processing is done, I'd like to access that
resource (it's some kind of HashMap on steroids). Accessing it in
onCollectionProcessComplete is not enough for me here, because I run
several of such pipelines and need the results of all of them to obtain
the information I'm interested in.
I've tried accessing it with
myAe.getResourceManager().getResource("resName");
where resName is the name I gave it when declaring it with
createExternalResourceDescription.
However this NPEs and I'm not sure how to proceed from there. It seems
UIMAfit is hiding a lot of details of the original UIMA resource
management so I may very well just have missed some very important
concept, if so please enlighten me :)
Cheers,
Hugo
