Hi, 

On our project we are currently trying to create OSGI Bundle to integrate UIMA components.

For the moment it works well but I have an instantiation problem using an aggregate AE which
reference a Vinci descriptor. 

He is what i'm doing: 

-- Main descriptor of the aggregate AE (X.xml) --
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
  <taeDescription xmlns="http://uima.apache.org/resourceSpecifier">
  <frameworkImplementation>org.apache.uima.java</frameworkImplementation>
  <primitive>false</primitive>

  <delegateAnalysisEngineSpecifiers>
    <delegateAnalysisEngine key="A">
      <import location="A.xml"/>
    </delegateAnalysisEngine>
    <delegateAnalysisEngine key="B">
      <import location="B.xml"/>
    </delegateAnalysisEngine>                        
  </delegateAnalysisEngineSpecifiers>
  
  <analysisEngineMetaData>

  </flowConstraints>

    <multipleDeploymentAllowed>true</multipleDeploymentAllowed>
    <outputsNewCASes>false</outputsNewCASes>
    </operationalProperties>
  </analysisEngineMetaData>

  <resourceManagerConfiguration/>

</taeDescription>

-- Descriptor B.xml describes a UriSpecifier --
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<uriSpecifier xmlns="http://uima.apache.org/resourceSpecifier">
    <resourceType>AnalysisEngine</resourceType>
    <uri>XXX</uri>
    <protocol>Vinci</protocol>
</uriSpecifier>


Then in Java i'm using this code to instantiate the Aggregate AE (uimaComponentDescriptorPath
is the path to the main component descriptor, uima) :


        ConfigurationManager configurationManager = UIMAFramework.newConfigurationManager();

        try
        {
            // uimaComponentDescriptorPath is the path to the main component descriptor of
the aggregate (X.xml)
            ResourceSpecifier uimaComponentDescription = UIMAFramework.getXMLParser().parseResourceSpecifier(new
File(uimaComponentDescriptorPath));

            // uimaComponentRootPath is the path to the root directory of the aggregate AE
            ResourceManager resourceManager = UIMAFramework.newDefaultResourceManager();
            resourceManager.setDataPath(uimaComponentRootPath);

            // Component classPath is computed using an utility function
            String uimaComponentClassPath = this.buildUimaComponentClassPath(uimaComponentRootPath);
            resourceManager.setExtensionClassPath(this.getClass().getClassLoader(), uimaComponentClassPath,
true);
                    
            AnalysisEngine analysisEngine = UIMAFramework.produceAnalysisEngine(this.uimaComponentDescription,
resourceManager, null);
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {

        }

The line AnalysisEngine analysisEngine = UIMAFramework.produceAnalysisEngine(this.uimaComponentDescription,
resourceManager, null); throws an exception : 

org.apache.uima.resource.ResourceInitializationException: The Resource Factory does not know
how to create a resource of class org.apache.uima.analysis_engine.AnalysisEngine from the
given ResourceSpecifier. (Descriptor: file:/D:/workspace_npf/component/desc/B.xml)

    at org.apache.uima.impl.AnalysisEngineFactory_impl.produceResource(AnalysisEngineFactory_impl.java:94)
    at org.apache.uima.impl.CompositeResourceFactory_impl.produceResource(CompositeResourceFactory_impl.java:62)
    at org.apache.uima.UIMAFramework.produceResource(UIMAFramework.java:258)
    at org.apache.uima.UIMAFramework.produceResource(UIMAFramework.java:303)
    at org.apache.uima.UIMAFramework.produceAnalysisEngine(UIMAFramework.java:383)

So this error indicate that UIMA can't find the a ResourceFactory to create an AnalysisEngine
from a <uriSpecifier>....</uriSpecifier> descriptor. 
What is the problem in the source code ? I think i've missed a step because this Aggregate
AE is working in a CPE. 

Thanks, 

Baptiste Gaillard
