"RapidMiner GUI as a Library from other Java program"

vijaypshah

Hi,

I was reading chapter 7 to integrate RM into other application. I want to use the RM-GUI as a library from other Java program. I just want to speed up my research, by integration both software so that I don't have to write data/results to disk. Could you please let me know about the documentation or example for using RM GUI as a library?
I could start RM_GUI using following code in my application

************************************************************
    new Thread(){
                   public void run() {
                    try {
                    String path="C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Rapid-I\\RapidMiner";
    System.setProperty("rapidminer.home",path );
   com.rapidminer.gui.RapidMinerGUI.main(new String[]{"Y:\\research\\rm_workspace\\clustering_xml\\em_no_reduction.xml"});
} catch (Exception e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}}
                       }.start();
***********************************************
How can I setup ExampleSet for the same and obtain back the result?

Thanks for your help.
Regards,
Vijay

Hi Vijay,
I'm not quite sure if it is possible this way. As far as I know you cannot give a process in the gui an initial input. A solution would be to put an Operator in the process, returning the example set. This could be done using a plugin.

But currently I don't know how to get back the results from gui mode...

Hi Sebastian,

Thanks, Oops, I had copied wrong code while experimentation. I corrected my previous post. I meant to say start GUI by passing the XML file not the process.

Vijay
