RE: Japanese and portuguese Language support

Hi Shahid,

Ctakes does support other languages.  To my knowledge it has been used with Italian and French dictionaries.

The dictionary gui is set up to create different language dictionaries, but right now it is hardcoded to English.  I really want to remove the hardcoding and add a component to the gui, but I have not had time to do so.

Anyway, go to the MainPanel class in ctakes-gui org.apache.ctakes.gui.dictionary and edit line #208 in the statement
if ( DictionaryBuilder.buildDictionary( __umlsDirPath, __ctakesDirPath, __dictionaryName,
      Collections.singletonList( "ENG" ),
      __wantedSources, __wantedTargets, __wantedTuis ) ) {

Change

Collections.singletonList( "ENG" ),
To

Arrays.asList( "JPN", "POR" ),

The ISO standard codes listed at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_639-1_codes
