Where can I download an C++ UIMA framework?

Hi all,

where can I download an "C++ UIMA framework"? I only saw the "Java UIMA
framework" for downloading from Apache's web-site.

Best regards,
Henrik

Hi Nicolas,

Sorry not to have responded to this earlier. I don't see any of the
problems you have reported. Without changes to the build components in
svn recently, the following steps worked with no problem:

  mkdir testcpp
  cd testcpp
  svn co http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/uima/uimacpp/trunk
  mv trunk/ uimacpp-2.2.0-svn
  cd uimacpp-2.2.0-svn/src
  make -f Makefile.prebuild
  export APR_HOME=/home/uimacpp/apr-1.2.8/usr/local/apr
  export ICU_HOME=/home/uimacpp/icu
  export XERCES_HOME=/home/uimacpp/xml4c-src5_5_0/install
  export JAVA_HOME=/uimacpp-common/ibm-java2-i386-50
  export JAVA_INCLUDE=$JAVA_HOME/include
  make -f Makefile.unix install
  cd test
  ./fvt.sh
  cd ../../docs/
  ./builddocs.sh
  cd ..
  ./buildsdk.sh ~/testcpp

Our build makes assumptions about how APR, ICU and Xerces were built
that are probably different from what you have. I will add some
details on building these components to the readme in the next few
days.

Not that I don't see any problems with buildsdk.sh. Why you are having
problems with that is a puzzle to me.

Re: Where can I download an C++ UIMA framework?

Posted by Nicolas Hernandez <ni...@gmail.com>.
Hi,

I recently heard about the UIMA UIMA framework and I m currently
testing it to estimate whether it fits to heterogeneous needs of my
research team. So far, I have managed to install eclipse plugins, made
my first annotators, dealt with SOAP deployment...
My last tests have concerned the ability of UIMA to integrate
Annotators written with Perl API thanks the "C++ Enablement Layer".  I
failed with the IBM' 1.4 and then I found this post about the
Apache'one.

I got some problems to install the latter. Since I finally managed to
deal with, I let you know some hints to get the uimacpp works from the
checkout version (as far as I understood from the READMEs).

I installed everything in my personnal $APPLI dir.
"jdk1.6.0" is installed too.
And I run on Linux version 2.6.22-14-generic (buildd@terranova) (gcc
version 4.1.3 20070929 (prerelease) (Ubuntu 4.1.2-16ubuntu2)).

1. checkout ; we call the trunk, $APPLI/apache-uimacpp-v2.2.0-svn

2. follow the README.4src guidelines "Setting up the build environment".

3. install APR, ICU, XERCES and declare variables in .bashrc
#------ JAVA
export JAVA_HOME=$APPLI/jdk
export JRE_HOME=$JAVA_HOME/jre
export JAVA_INCLUDE=$JAVA_HOME/include
export CPATH=$JAVA_HOME/include:$CPATH

#------ XERCES - http://xml.apache.org/xerces-c/
export XERCES_HOME=$APPLI/xerces-c
export PATH=$PATH:$XERCES_HOME/bin
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$XERCES_HOME/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

#------   ICU    - http://www.icu-project.org/
export ICU_HOME=$APPLI/icu4c-3_8_1-bin
export PATH=$PATH:$ICU_HOME/bin:$ICU_HOME/sbin
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ICU_HOME/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export CPATH=$ICU_HOME/include:$CPATH

#------   APR    - http://apr.apache.org/
export APR_HOME=$APPLI/apr
export PATH=$PATH:$APR_HOME/bin
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$APR_HOME/include:$APR_HOME/include/apr-1:$APR_HOME/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export CPATH=$APR_HOME/include:$APR_HOME/include/apr-1:$APR_HOME/lib:$CPATH

4. make some apt-get install libtool automake autoconf doxygen graphviz

5. cd apache-uimacpp-svn/src
make -f Makefile.prebuild

6. ./configure --prefix=apache-uimacpp-v2.2.0-bin
--with-jdk=$APPLI/jdk/include/linux --with-apr=$APR_HOME
--with-icu=$ICU_HOME --with-xerces=$XERCES_HOME
Here is a bug, since "apache-uimacpp-v2.2.0-bin" will be created into
apache-uimacpp-svn. We will call this dir UIMA_INSTALLDIR

7. make -f Makefile.unix install

8.
cd ../../docs
./builddocs.sh

9.
cd ..
export UIMA_INSTALLDIR=$APPLI/apache-uimacpp-v2.2.0-svn/apache-uimacpp-v2.2.0-bin

10. Since buildsdk.sh have some bugs (UIMA_INSTALL -> UIMA_INSTALLDIR,
and UIMA_INSTALLDIR/include/uima does not exist) do
mkdir $UIMA_INSTALLDIR/include/uima
cp  $UIMA_INSTALLDIR/include/* $UIMA_INSTALLDIR/include/uima

11.
rm -rf $APPLI/tmp
./buildsdk.sh $APPLI/tmp
cd $APPLI/tmp
tar cvzf uimacpp-2.2.0-incubating-bin.tgz uimacpp

12. Add in .bashrc
#------ UIMACPP
export UIMACPP_HOME=$UIMA_HOME/uimacpp
export PATH=$UIMACPP_HOME/bin:$PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$UIMACPP_HOME/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

you can copy uimacpp-2.2.0-incubating-bin.tgz into your UIMA_HOME, and
read its README.

The rest works with me easily...

Wish you having fun...

/Nicolas

RE: Where can I download an C++ UIMA framework?

Posted by "LeHouillier, Frank D." <Fr...@gd-ais.com>.
The C++ framework from apache hasn't been released yet but it is
available via subversion.  If you have subversion installed, the command
is 

svn co http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/uima/uimacpp/trunk

There are readme's included about how to build the source included for
the gcc on linux and for Visual 8 on windows.

I think that this version is largely the same as the IBM UIMA Cpp
version 1.4 but changes all the namespaces and hooks up to the current
Java UIMA well.  The core UIMA team has mostly focused on the Java
framework in terms of developing the API and getting the project out of
incubation etc.  I expect that at some point some work will be done to
bring the Cpp API more in line with the Java API and we might even get
stuff like the JCas for c++, but this probably depends more on community
support than anything else.

Hi all,

where can I download an "C++ UIMA framework"? I only saw the "Java UIMA
framework" for downloading from Apache's web-site.
