Can we update the version of Tika in the TikaAnnotator to 0.4
The current dependency is specified as 0.2, but the Tika project is now
at 0.4 release. I don't know if changing to 0.4 requires any concurrent
modifications to the annotator.

Right you are - I had foolishly searched for "ant" to see if the script
was there - but it showed up when I searched for "build" (build.xml).
I think you're correct, it was removed in favor of a consistent build
approach using maven (less to maintain).

I tried this and it compiled OK.
I had success with the following (requires maven to be installed):
cd to directory TikaAnnotator
mvn install
That builds it, builds any docbook documentation (there is none) and
runs the test cases (there are none, I think).
Thanks. -Marshall

Actually my initial patch from 2008-09-22 01:33 AM *did* have an ANT script.
I am not a Maven user so I assume that the ANT script has been replaced with
a pom.xml by joern when he made the changes to the code in January.
I suppose that the comment about ANT in the readme can now be removed.

Won't have time to look into this in the short term but can try at some
point next week. Maybe someone with more experience of Maven can give it a
try first and see if it compiles OK?

Thanks.
One final issue: The README for the TikaAnnotator says ...
COMPILATION
You can use the ANT script to compile the sources.
....
But there is no ant script in the TikaAnnotator project. A check of the
history shows it wasn't included in the initial Jira UIMA-1095 patch,
from Julien Nioche
Julien - can you take a look at this issue, and also see if everything
is OK for version 0.4?

The tika-core jar contains only the core client-visible classes and
interfaces and has zero dependencies beyond Java 5. All the actual
parser implementations and external parser dependencies are in the
tika-parsers jar. This split is new in Tika 0.4 and was done to better
support users who only need the core functionality.
For UIMA, I suppose you'll want support for all the document types, so
the correct dependency settings would be:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.tika</groupId>
<artifactId>tika-core</artifactId>
<version>0.4</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.tika</groupId>
<artifactId>tika-parsers</artifactId>
<version>0.4</version>
</dependency>
See the Maven section in
http://lucene.apache.org/tika/gettingstarted.html for the full
details.

OK, replacing the dependency on
org.apache.tika:tika:0.2 with
org.apache.tika:tika-core:0.4
resulted in successful building.
However, I notice that there are no test cases for this annotator, and
also that there is another tika artifact at the 0.4 level, called
tika-parsers. Is this other artifact needed? If so, how does it need
to be incorporated?

The main Tika APIs are pretty much the same in 0.4 than they were in
0.2, so no major client changes should be needed. The 0.4 release just
has more and better file format support than 0.2. :-)
