Re: Supertype other than umia.tcas.annotation

Dear Sarah,

I am not fully sure, but I think you need to import the supertype before you 
can use it in that type descriptor.

    Dear all
    
    I am trying to add costumized types to my type system. More specifically, I 
want to have types that extend the DKpro div type. However, when I enter 
de.tudarmstadt.ukp.dkpro.core.api.segmentation.type.Div as a supertypeName in 
the descriptor file, jcasgen returns the following error:
    
    org.apache.uima.resource.ResourceInitializationException: Undefined type 
“de.tudarmstadt.ukp.dkpro.core.api.segmentation.type.Div”, referenced as 
supertype of type "my.own.div.type.OwnDiv"
    
    
            <typeDescription>
                <name>my.own.div.type.OwnDiv</name>
                <description/>
                
<supertypeName>de.tudarmstadt.ukp.dkpro.core.api.segmentation.type.Div</supertypeName>
            </typeDescription>
    
    How can I teach jcasgen which namespace to use?
    
    Cheers
