Uima-AS Cas merger with cas multiplier

[Wahed Hemati <he...@em.uni-frankfurt.de>]

Hi,
I am seeking for a solution for my little problem.
I have a Uima-AS AAE with a cas multiplier. My input is a simple text 
document. The Cas multiplier splits the document into two parts for 
which the cas multiplier generates new cases. The cases are routed 
through the flow and at some point of my AAE i want to merge these cases 
back together into one cas and continue routing the merged cas through 
other AEs.

My AAE looks like this:

inputText-> AE_1-> CasMultiplier -> AE_2-> AE_3 -> CasMerger -> AE_4 -> 
AE_5-> CasConsumer

My CasMultiplier is similar to 
org.apache.uima.examples.casMultiplier.SimpleTextSegmenter and my Merger 
is similar to org.apache.uima.examples.casMultiplier.SimpleTextMerger.

I got the following problem:
My AAE generates two insteances of CasMerger, because the CasMultiplier 
generates two cases. How do i tell my AAE to instantiate only one 
CasMerger and route all cases generated by the CasMultiplier and 
processed by AE_2 and AE_3 to that CasMerger?

Kindly help.

Thanks in advanced.

Hemati

Hi Hemati,

If all the components listed are delegates of a single AAE, and the AAE is
deployed by UIMA-AS as "async", then by default only a single instance of
each delegate will be instantiated. Does the UIMA-AS deployment descriptor
specify more than one instance of any of the delegates?

Regards,
Eddie
