Apache UIMA Ruta (TM) v3.4.0

Apache UIMA Ruta™ is a rule-based script language supported by Eclipse-based tooling. The language is designed to enable rapid development of text processing applications within Apache UIMA™. A special focus lies on the intuitive and flexible domain specific language for defining patterns of annotations. The Eclipse-based tooling for Ruta, called the Ruta Workbench, was created to support the user and to facilitate every step when writing Ruta rules. Both the Ruta rule language and the Ruta Workbench integrate smoothly with Apache UIMA.

This is a feature and bugfix release.

Compatibility notes

  • The modules ruta-typesystem and ruta-basic-type do no longer exist as separate modules. They have been merged into the ruta-core module.
  • Parts of the ruta-core-ext module have been merged into the ruta-core module as well. The merged extensions remain extensions and did not become part of the Ruta language. Check what remains in the ruta-core-ext module and remove any dependencies on it if you do not need the extensions it provides.
