GATE usage in java Netbeans

Question

I am trying to write an application from extracting entities from a text and want to use GATE jar files. For which I have installed the GATE tool and have imported jar files, but it is giving errors. I can't understand from where to download more jar files and how to run the first simple program with this.

enter image description here

Not all jars are visible in the Libraries folder. Also it would be better to put errors as text. Not all are familiar with Netbeans IDE. — ashingel, Feb 20 '16 at 20:09

Please make sure that you added gate.jar from YOUR_GATE_HOME/bin folder.

From your screenshot I can assume that you used an example provided by GitHub. This example looks good, except one part (from my point of view of course). I would suggest to replace output piece with the next more readable code:

    String text = "Steve works for Apple Inc in California.";
    Document gateDocument = Factory.newDocument(text);
    corpus.add(gateDocument);

    // tell the ANNIE application about the corpus and run it
    annie.setCorpus(corpus);
    annie.execute();

    List<Annotation> personAnnotations = gateDocument.getAnnotations().get(ANNIEConstants.PERSON_ANNOTATION_TYPE).inDocumentOrder();

    for (Annotation personAnnotation : personAnnotations) {
        System.out.println("Entity Text: " + gate.Utils.stringFor(gateDocument, personAnnotation) + " Features: " + personAnnotation.getFeatures());
    }

Similar things could be done for Location, Organisation and other Entity types defined in GATE. Also do not forget to release resources with Factory.deleteResource().
