Scrap that, it doesn't work this way. So my question becomes: can I instant=
iate
the type system of an UIMAfit annotator the same way OpenNLP does it (worki=
ng
around the missing typeSystemInit method somehow) or do I have to give up
UIMAfit components? (Or maybe there's an alternative? I'd prefer not to hav=
e to
run JCasGen on opennlp's TypeSystem.xml)

Cheers,
Aleks
