Hi I am trying to use Ruta Query View to get a view of all matches for a particular annotation type across a large set of .xmi files. However, I am noticing something strange about Ruta Query View - it doesnt't report lots of matches that are shown in the Annotation browser (and which I believe are correct matches). For example, a given annotation type tsCurrent has 4 matches in the file NCT0036712, but these matches do not appear at all in the list of results in Ruta Query View when I query for tsCurrent. For some files, though, the results for all matches do show up, and for other files, only a partial set of matches are in the query results. I cannot understand why this is happening. Perhaps my query syntax is wrong? I can only find the one example in the manual, which isn't much to go on.
I am attaching a screenshot showing the AnnotationBrowser on the top right in Eclipse, with all of the matches for tsCurrent, and the Ruta Query view on bottom, which does not contain those matches. I think it is easier to see the problem visually. Also,ultimately I am just trying to get a count of the number of times certain annotations are made across all of my files. Is there a better way to do that instead of Ruta Query View? I can't find another way to total matches across lots of files. thanks, Bonnie MacKellar [image: Inline image 1]
