File format versions
From time to time, a change in the file format becomes necessary. Specifically, this means changes in the UIMA type system. This page lists the different versions of the type system, and the versions of the program they are used with.
| Type system version | Application version |
|---|---|
| v1 | 1.5 - |
| LEGACY | 1.0.0-alpha1 - 1.4 |
To convert files from one type system to the other, we use the importer mechanism that is in place to import from other entirely different file types. For each step from one version to the next, an converter is added. Their names all start with the label "Convert", followed by the step they are converting from and to. E.g., the converter labeled Convert: LEGACY → v1 converts from LEGACY files to v1 files.
