Publishing UIMA jars in Maven repository

We're getting ready for our 2.2 release and for this release we will
also try to deploy our Maven jars to the Apache incubator repository.
For those users who would like this, what UIMA artifacts would you
like to see deployed?  We'll probably deploy all of our jar files.
Does it also make sense to deploy the UIMA eclipse plugins (where the
Maven artifacts are zip files, not jars)?

Re: Publishing UIMA jars in Maven repository

Adam--

I don't think having the Eclipse plug-ins in maven would be useful to us.
For that, just an Eclipse update site would be useful.

We do use maven though, and having the jars in a repository will be really nice.
Thank you.

Speaking of maven, have you thought about creating maven targets to produce
PEAR files?  We want to build our annotators with maven and deliver them as
PEAR files, but the best we can currently do is zip files.

Re: Publishing UIMA jars in Maven repository

Hi Greg,

have you tried the Pear packaging Ant task that Michael wrote
for the sandbox:
http://incubator.apache.org/uima/sandbox.html#pear.package.task

It's not Maven, but with the Maven Ant plugin, you should be
able to create Pear files.

Moving to Java 1.5?

Hi all,

our upcoming (hopefully very soon) 2.2 release will still
be Java 1.4 compatible.  We're currently having a discussion
on the development list if for the next version, we should
move to Java 1.5.  This would mean that future UIMA versions
would no longer be able to run in Java 1.4, but would
require 1.5 or newer.

Java 1.4 is getting quite long in the tooth, and most people
have moved.  Java 1.5 brought many changes and improvements
which we would like to be able to exploit in UIMA.

So my question is: would this cause major headaches for
anybody around here?  Anybody still committed to Java 1.4
for the foreseeable future?

The corresponding uima-dev mail thread is here:
http://www.mail-archive.com/uima-dev%40incubator.apache.org/msg03860.html

Re: Moving to Java 1.5?

I vote for 1.5!  We have no need for 1.4 compatibility.  I'm actually 
running it on Java SE 6...so I'm good.

RE: Moving to Java 1.5?

As I know Java 1.5 is a kind of norm nowadays - I myself have been using Java 1.5.X for the past two years, so I
think the later version of UIMA should move to 1.5 as soon as possible.

Announcement beta version of RASP4UIMA

Dear UIMA users,

We are very pleased to announce the beta release of RASP4UIMA. RASP is a
domain-independent, robust parsing system for English. RASP4UIMA wraps the
NLP modules of RASP (Sentence Parser, Tokenizer, Part of Speech Tagger,
Morphological Analyser and Dependency Parser) as UIMA Analysis Engines.

RASP4UIMA is available from  http://www.digitalpebble.com/resources.html as
a PEAR package. The documentation is available in the doc directory of the
PEAR package and from http://www.digitalpebble.com/rasp4uima/index.html

We'd love to hear your thoughts, suggestions or comments about it.

On a slightly different subject we are considering wrapping the POS Tagger
of RASP (which is in C) as a native annotator using UIMACpp. Please contact
me if you're interested in doing this.

Best regards,

Julien Nioche

Re: Moving to Java 1.5?

We have moved to 1.5.

FYI, we find this tool useful when we want to run our 1.5 code on a 1.4 JVM: http://retroweaver.sourceforge.net
