Description

When the XcasCollectionReader fails to init because its input directory is missing it reports the cause when run in core UIMA, i.e.

Caused by: org.apache.uima.resource.ResourceInitializationException: Initialization of annotator class "com.ibm.nlp.readers.XcasCollectionReader" failed. (Descriptor: file:/.automount/hlthome01/a/hlthome01/homes/hlthome01.3/burn/workspace/factotem/desc/pipe/readers/XcasCollectionReader.xml)
Caused by: org.apache.uima.resource.ResourceInitializationException: Invalid value for parameter "InputDirectory" in component "null" – directory "xmidata" does not exist.

but when deployed under UIMA-AS this detailed exception is missing ... all we get is the higher-level cause, e.g.

1/30/10 10:56:15 PM - 3: org.apache.uima.aae.controller.PrimitiveAnalysisEngineController_impl.initializeAnalysisEngine: WARNING: org.apache.uima.resource.ResourceInitializationException: Initialization of annotator class "com.ibm.nlp.readers.XcasCollectionReader" failed. (Descriptor: file:/u/burn/workspace/factotem/desc/pipe/readers/XcasCollectionReader.xml)

Also, the detailed message lists the component as "null" ... the collection reader follows the example code and reports the error with:
throw new ResourceInitializationException(
ResourceConfigurationException.DIRECTORY_NOT_FOUND,
new Object[]

{ PARAM_INPUTDIR, this.getMetaData().getName(), directory.getPath() }

);

How should we retrieve the component name?
