Description

In restructuring the RunAE example to remove deprecated things and do things the "right way", I realized I wanted a way to refer to Collection Reader and CAS Consumer descriptors that are located in the uima-core.jar file. If the CPE descriptor supported a URL, this would be easy. We've had user requests for this in the past and it should not be too hard to do.
