Identifying failed AE from StatusCallbackListener

Hi,

I'm looking to identify documents whose processing failed for later 
re-processing. I'd also like to identify the failing AE. I'm looking
at StatusCallbackListener.getFailedComponentNames() and getting
"[Process]" back. Could someone more familiar with that part of the
code help enlighten me?

Is this intended to be the AE name? Or is it a more
general concept? Is there some data missing from my
configuration that might be used to fill that field in
with something more useful?

thanks
-Chris

We put in that error message in the 2.3.1 version of the PersonTitleAnnotator -
because others have been hit with this same issue - the annotator previously
just produced nothing, with no message.  You can find out more about results
specification, in the documentation:
http://uima.apache.org/d/uimaj-2.3.1/tutorials_and_users_guides.html#ugr.tug.aae.result_specification_setting

Many annotators ignore the result specification, and produce their output
regardless.  But the PersonTitleAnnotator was written to be more of a tutorial,
teaching example, and has code in it that makes use of it.  You can see this
code here:

Performance Report bug, and best-practices for 'import by name' in CDE

PERFORMANCE REPORT BUG

There appears to be a bug when generating the information after
a CPE completes, that depicts the total processing time.  If there
are more than 1 thread in the CPE, the processing times per thread
are added together, so a 10 threaded setup will report a total time
that is actually 10 times longer than elapsed.

IMPORT BY NAME ISSUES WITH COMPONENT DESCRIPTOR EDITOR

A suggestion to improve by example, relating to "import by name"
- in order for "import by name" to work properly in the Component
Descriptor Editor, imported projects
have to list their descriptors as "Source folders on build path"
such that they get copied (automatically) to the Default output
folder (usually project-name/bin).  This is not the case in the
uimaj-examples project, so anyone using that as a template is
possibly going to be confused in two ways:

  * 'import by name' not working
  * cognitive dissonance: XML descriptors aren't binaries, yet
	they get copied there as such whenprojects are set up
	such that they are listed as Source on build path
	(in order to make 'import by name' work properly)

Re: the confusion around import-by-name in the uimaj-examples project: You are
right.  This was all set up a long time ago, before we even had import-by-name,
as I recall.

Issues building and running pythonnator under Windows

I'm having some issues building and running pythonnator. I've followed the
instructions and am able to build the pythonnator successfully with the
instructions specified in the python.html file. I then copied over the
_pythonnator.dll, pythonnator.py and sample.py files to %UIMACPP_HOME%\bin,
which is on PYTHONPATH. However, when I run the runAEcpp command with the
PythonSample.xml as the descriptor and a sample input file, I get the
following errors:

Pythonnator: Initialize - debug=101
Pythonnator:sample: failed to import pythonnator module, PYTHONPATH problem?
Pythonnator: destroy
Exception exceptions.ImportError: 'No module named _pythonnator' in 'garbage
collection' ignored
Fatal Python error: unexpected exception during garbage collection

This happens with both Python 2.4 and 2.5. I'm at my wit's end trying to
resolve this issue. Can anybody please help me with this?

Regards.

Re: Issues building and running pythonnator under Windows

As a sanity check, keep all the files in %uimacpp_home%\scriptators\python
and try runaecpp pythonsample.xml ..\..\examples\data
This should run a few documents and find annotations in some.

I get the same error as you if pythonnator.py is moved to another directory.
However, all works again for me if PYTHONPATH points to that directory.

Here's all the python in my environment:

C:\temp\apache-uima\uimacpp\scriptators\python>set | grep PYTH
PYTHONPATH=C:\temp\apache-uima\uimacpp\scriptators\python\SAVE
PYTHON_INCLUDE=\Python24\include
PYTHON_LIB=\Python24\lib
PYTHON_LIBDIR=\Python24\libs

CAS Editor type system questions

  Hello,

when using the CAS Editor I have two problems and I want to ask if I'm 
doing something wrong:

I can't open a xmi if it contains annotations of types that are not 
defined in the specified type system.

If I specify a type system in a CAS Editor project that imports other 
types system (by location), then the editor does not open correctly, 
especially if the xmi contains types of the imported type systems.

Thanks,

Peter

Yes, that is a limitation which is there. Maybe it is possible to open a 
CAS even when types it contains
are not in the type system. Not sure about that. Would it be important 
for you to change that ?

That sounds like a bug to me. Did you use the Cas Editor project ? There 
is also support now to open CAS files which
are not in a Cas Editor project, in this case the type system is either 
located in a default location, or it ask for a type system
to use.

I think (not sure though) that you can somehow open an XMI
file with data that's not in the type system, and populate
the CAS only with the known data without throwing an error.

The importance is relative. We will probably use the CAS Editor to 
annotate stuff and in my use cases there are always annotations of 
unknown types present. On the other hand, I can also do some workaround 
for that problem.
