Enables Sclera to work with free-form text files.

The text files are viewed as tables, with two columns: an identifier column containing the file's path, and another column containing the file's contents. These tables can be scanned, filtered, joined, and aggregated in a manner similar to database tables in a SQL query.

A common use case is to use this in conjunction with the Sclera - OpenNLP Connector which can be used to extract entities from the file contents.

For details on how to use the connector, please see the ScleraSQL Reference document.

This is a sample component showcasing Sclera's ability to interface with external data. For the implementation details, please see the Sclera Data Access Connector Development document.
