  • Method Details

    • processCas

      void processCas(CAS aCAS) throws ResourceProcessException
      Process a single CAS.
      Parameters:
      aCAS - the CAS to be processed. Additional information may be added to this CAS (if this CAS processor is not read-only).
      Throws:
      ResourceProcessException - if processing fails
    • processCas

      void processCas(CAS[] aCASes) throws ResourceProcessException
      Processes multiple CASes.
      Parameters:
      aCASes - an array of CASes to be processed. Additional information may be added to these CASes (if this CAS processor is not read-only).
      Throws:
      ResourceProcessException - if processing fails for any of the CASes
    • typeSystemInit

      void typeSystemInit(TypeSystem aTypeSystem) throws ResourceInitializationException
      Informs this CasConsumer that the CAS TypeSystem has changed. The CPM calls this method prior to initiating collection processing, and will call it again whenever the CAS TypeSystem changes.

      In this method, the CasConsumer should use the TypeSystem to resolve the names of Type and Features to the actual Type and Feature objects, which can then be used during processing.

      Parameters:
      aTypeSystem - the type system to use
      Throws:
      ResourceInitializationException - if the type system is not compatible with this Cas Consumer
