Will Ruta support all type of spaces?-Uima Ruta

I need to know whether ruta support all type of spaces.I've tried to annotate Fig 1.1 and Fig 1.2.

Sample Code:

 PACKAGE uima.ruta.example;
 DECLARE FigNo;
 (W{REGEXP("Fig",true)} NUM PERIOD NUM){->MARK(FigNo)};

Input:

 Fig 1.1
 Fig 1.2

Expected Output:

 Fig 1.1
 Fig 1.2

But for me only Fig 1.1 is coming under FigNo. The difference between Fig 1.1 and Fig 1.2 is Space (Fig thinspace 1.1 and Fig emspace 1.2).

Solution

  • How to answer this question?

    Yes, UIMA Ruta will support all types of spaces, if someone opens a ticket for it here and someone implements the changes, e.g., by uploading a patch.

    If you are the first someone, I'll do the part of the second someone.
