Natural Language Processing in C++

java c++ nlp gate uima

I'm working on a project that already has a C++ base. I would like to have a plug-in for some natural language processing. I really like GATE but I'm not sure if it's worth launching the JVM and splitting the project into C++ and Java portions. I noticed UIMA has a C++ framework, but have not tried it but seems to have less features than GATE.

Does anyone know of a better option than trying to wrap GATE somehow in C++ (eg better NLP library in C++)? If I do wrap GATE in C++, what is the best way? SOA?

Thanks

A list of resources for NLP (POS Taggers, NP chunking, Sequence models, Parsers...) in C++ and other languages by Christopher Manning. Another one in Wikipedia.

Also there's Boost page for String and text processing.
