Description

Several people have problems using uimaFIT with traditional XML descriptors because we have a createAnalysisEngineFromPath method, but not a createAnalysisEngineDescriptionFromPath. It is best practice in uimaFIT to work with descriptors instead of completely instantiated AEs. So such a method should be added to the AnalysisEngineFactory.
