I am trying to pass parameter values to an annotator I am writing. This is something I have done in the past, but for the life of me, I can't get it to work now. No matter what I do, it seems the parameter stay at their default values, and the values I pass when creating the engine description get ignored.
Attached is a simple class that shows how I go about defining the parameters. As far as I can tell, I am exactly following the documentation (Section 2.2): https://uima.apache.org/d/uimafit-current/tools.uimafit.book.html yet, when I run the class as a main(), I get the output below. Running a DummyAnnotator -- DummyAnnotator.process: stringParam=null ** HOW COME THIS PARAMETER IS null??? DONE: Running a DummyAnnotator
