[RavenclawDev 179] grounding_manager_configuration setting in config file of DM

[Svetlana Stenchikova]

I have encountered an issue with binding a concept in DM depending on a user
utterance.

in my DM I have a grammar mapping. "@(...)[Question.where_event]>where,"


The user can ask a question in multiple ways:
where class
where is class
where is the class
what is the location the class
..

for all of these entries PHOENIX produces identical parse

[Question] ( [where_event] ( WHERE ) )
Features
[EventTypeSpec] ( [event_type] ( [event_type_singular] ( MEETING ) ) )

" } )

When a configuration file passed to the DM in -config has an entry:
grounding_manager_configuration =
turns:default;concepts:default;beliefupdatingmodel:npu


if a user types:
"where is the class"    DM does not bind the concepts, but if the user types

"where class"             DM binds the concepts.

When the grounding_manager_configuration is taken out of DM, the binding
succeeds for both utterances.

Can this be explained?  Do you think there may be a problem with my grammar
or something in my DM?
The grammar of the Phoenix parser should not matter because in all cases the
parses are identical, right?

thank you

Svetlana
