Building on Mac; simple NER example?

Hi there -

I've downloaded the 2.4.0 C++ framework source and am trying to build it on Mac OS X 10.8.5. First, I had to mess around with the JavaVM framework files by adding a few symlinks:

1. In /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/CurrentJDK/Home, I added:

	include -> /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Headers/

2. In /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/Current/Headers, I added:

	JavaVM -> ./

then specified to configure:

--with-jdk=/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/CurrentJDK/Home/include

that finally made configure succeed.  (Mac OS X is supposed to be a supported platform, isn't it?)

When I tried to build, I get:

> In file included from ./uima/casiterator.hpp:37:
> ../cas/uima/cas.hpp:1252:84: error: default argument references parameter
>       'enAmbiguous'
>   ...const & crType, EnIteratorAmbiguity enAmbiguous = enAmbiguous ) const;
>                                                        ^~~~~~~~~~~
> ../cas/uima/cas.hpp:1376:88: error: default argument references parameter

>                                                    ^~~~~~~~~~~

FYI:

Assuming I can get past this, my primary goal is to use UIMA to perform NER, i.e., give it some text and get people & places back.  I couldn't find any examples of this.  Can this be done using UIMA?  Example C++ code?  Thanks.

You could try Apache OpenNLP.
