Update to UIMA 3 and DKpro Core to Version 2.1.0

[pagelj]

Several issues occurred:

• PARAM_OVERWRITE = true needs to be added to all calls of XmiWriter
• Import of the POS libraries needs to changed (e.g. POS_NOUN instead of NN)
• stanfordnlp API is now called corenlp
• Unresolved issue with DocumentMetaData
• Some libraries are now under org.dkpo. instead of de.tudarmstadt.ukp.dkpro. (but not all!)
• commons-lang needs to be updated to commons-lang3
• dkpro functions that return annotations now return List instead of Collection

[pagelj]

For the DocumentMetaData issue, also see https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/dkpro-core-user/-DtO5Ivnk9I/o5ZpB9v7BwAJ and https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-5054
Unfortunately, UIMA Java SDK >=2.8.1 does not solve the problem for us. Either it did not actually get fixed or our issue is a different one

Postponing this issue for now

dkpro is now at 1.10.0 anyway ...

[pagelj]

true, I also tried to update to 1.10.0, but the issue still persists

[nilsreiter]

It’s 1.12.0 by now 😉

Updating to UIMA 3 would also be entailed by this, and that probably has other benefits.

Https://github.com/nilsreiter/CorefAnnotator/issues/300 would also benefit from that.

[pagelj]

Ok, I will give it another try

[pagelj]

Updating to UIMA 3 will probably also require nilsreiter/generic-xml-reader#12 to be solved first

[nilsreiter]

Updating to UIMA 3 will probably also require nilsreiter/generic-xml-reader#12 to be solved first

I just noticed that this was long done, but I didn't close the issue.

[pagelj]

Ah yes, thanks! I already tried out the updated generic-xml-reader, it is working fine

[pagelj]

@nilsreiter But actually, https://github.com/nilsreiter/uima-util is also an issue, it also needs to be updated to UIMA 3, otherwise DramaNLP will not compile

[nilsreiter]

Damn, too many dependencies ...

What exactly is it that we from uima-util? Some of its functions are now also available in uima3, I noticed.

Edit: I'll try to make a quick update of uima-util, now that I'm at it.

[pagelj]

Right now, it is using de.unistuttgart.ims.uimautil.AnnotationUtil (for trimming I think), de.unistuttgart.ims.uimautil.RemoveDuplicateAnnotations and de.unistuttgart.ims.uimautil.SetCollectionId (which are relevant) and

de.unistuttgart.ims.uimautil.AnnotationComparator, de.unistuttgart.ims.uimautil.ClearAnnotation, de.unistuttgart.ims.uimautil.ContextWindowAnnotator, de.unistuttgart.ims.uimautil.MapAnnotations (which are probably not super relevant)

[nilsreiter]

Thanks!
uima-util now exists in version 2.0.0, which uses UIMA 3.2.0.
Should be in maven central soonish.
