Method Detail

deserialize

public static void deserialize(InputStream aStream,
                               CAS aCAS)
                        throws SAXException,
                               IOException

Deserializes a CAS from a standoff-XML format.

Parameters:

aStream - input stream from which to read the XML document

aCAS - CAS into which to deserialize. This CAS must be set up with a type system that is compatible with that in the XML.

Throws:

SAXException - if an XML Parsing error occurs

IOException - if an I/O failure occurs

deserialize

public static void deserialize(InputStream aStream,
                               CAS aCAS,
                               boolean aLenient)
                        throws SAXException,
                               IOException

Deserializes a CAS from XMI.

Parameters:

aStream - input stream from which to read the XML document

aCAS - CAS into which to deserialize. This CAS must be set up with a type system that is compatible with that in the XML

aLenient - if true, unknown Types will be ignored. If false, unknown Types will cause an exception. The default is false.

Throws:

SAXException - if an XML Parsing error occurs

IOException - if an I/O failure occurs
