Using the new gapText parameter in UIMA Ruta HTMLConverter I noticed that the string is trimmed in the pipeline aggregation process e.g. “ . “ ends up as “.” in the pipeline and when writing the pipeline to XML. I don’t think it has anything to do with the HTMLConverter in particular. We use UIMAfit to construct the aggregated analysis engine description but I don’t know where this trimming exactly occurs. I was also able to run a small example pipeline where the trim did not happen, which was a bit of a surprise. Does anyone have an idea what could be the cause and whether its somehow controllable?
We use a branch of UIMAfit that fixed some resource binding issue and we are currently on commit e9b32e30895443b9f93fef65453593dd1533c7d0 with UIMA 2.7. Cheers Mario
