Description

Hello,

In the UIMA Tutorial and Developer's Guide, section "Throwing Exceptions from Annotators", it is written that one can throw 3 kinds of exceptions, one of which is the ResourceConfigurationException. And it is written that is good to read the configuration parameters in the inialize() method, but unfortunately the initialize() method can throw only ResourceInitializationException, so I am not able to throw the ResourceConfigurationException. The method signature is:

public void initialize(UimaContext context) throws ResourceInitializationException

Can you add also the ResourceConfigurationException or correct the documentation?

Greetings,
Nikolay
