Example

1. All forms of development require the Java SDK 1.6+. You can get it from java.com.

Make sure you get the proper version and install the SDK not just the Java Runtime environment.

To check if you have the SDK, look in the lib directory of the Java
install and see if the file tools.jar is there. If there is a lib
directory and there is a file by that name then you have the SDK.

To check if you have the proper version. Enter the command:
Windows*and *Linux:

Code Block
languagenone
java -version


on any command line to see what version you have now.

...

Code Block
languagenone
C:\>java -version
java version "1.6.0_20"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_20-b02)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 16.3-b01, mixed mode, sharing)

...

 2. 
 It is possible that some commands and programs can find the Java 
 runtime that you want to be used but it is best to set the JAVA_HOME 
 environment variable. Set the value of JAVA_HOME to the absolute path of
 the root of the Java Runtime environment that you want UIMA to use. 
 Windows: 
 Right-click on Computer> Properties> *Advanced*tab > *Environment Variables*button > *New* button for System variables. Keep clicking *OK* until you are out of the dialog series. 
 Linux: 


 Code Block
languagenone
export JAVA_HOME=<path>

 Step 
 Example 
 1. Download and install Eclipse if you don't already have it. 

 (optional) It is recommended that you start a new workspace to keep your cTAKES projects separate from other work. 
 No example 
 2. Find UIMA Eclipse plug-ins. 

 Help> Install New Software...> *Add...* button 
 Set a repository name and this site location 

 Code Block

 Example 
 1. Navigate to the source downloads for areleased version on SourceForge.net 
 Even without the full LVG data, cTAKES is about 790 MB when compressed. 
 2. Download the latest version. 

 Select the directory for the latest version and download the *ZIP*file. 
  
 3.
 Unzip the file you downloaded into a directory that you want to be the 
 cTAKES install location. It will expand to about 1.4GB.
