ResourceInitializationException when using SimpleNamedResourceManager

[snehal...@gmail.com]

Hello,

I am seeing the following exception stacktrace with UIMAFit 1.4. Attached is the testcase to reproduce this issue. Any pointers to fix this issue?

org.apache.uima.resource.ResourceInitializationException: There is no resource satisfying the required resource dependency with key "MRN_PATTERN_KEY". (Descriptor: <unknown>)

Hi,

there are two issues:



1) there may be an issue with auto-wiring. You can work around that by calling

bindExternalResource(desc, MedicalRecordNumberAnnotator.MRN, MedicalRecordNumberAnnotator.MRN);

Thanks for reporting this.



2) you are setting adding the wrong object to the map

externalContext.put(MedicalRecordNumberAnnotator.MRN, p);

should be

externalContext.put(MedicalRecordNumberAnnotator.MRN, mrnPatterns);



Btw. "Pattern" is a data type supported by uimaFIT. You should try if you can just do this:

@ConfigurationParameter(name=MedicalRecordNumberAnnotator.MRN)
List<Pattern> patterns;

createPrimitiveDescription(MedicalRecordNumberAnnotator.class,
MedicalRecordNumberAnnotator.MRN, new String[] { "regex1", regex2 })

Cheers,

Hi Richard,

Thanks for the quick reply. I think after debugging I found the root cause was that 

SimpleNamedResourceManager#initializeExternalResources method was not getting called as some part of Resource initialization is skipping it because ResourceManagerConfiguration was null.

I worked around the solution by doing this:

AnalysisEngineDescription desc = createPrimitiveDescription(MedicalRecordNumberAnnotator.class);

desc.setResourceManagerConfiguration(new ResourceManagerConfiguration_impl());

Thanks,

Snehal
