Deprecated. Use org.biojavax.bio.seq.io.EMBLFormat instead

    public class EmblLikeFormat

extends Object
implements SequenceFormat, Serializable, ParseErrorSource, ParseErrorListener

Format processor for handling EMBL records and similar files. This takes a very simple approach: all `normal' attribute lines are passed to the listener as a tag (first two characters) and a value (the rest of the line from the 6th character onwards). Any data between the special `SQ' line and the "//" entry terminator is passed as a SymbolReader.

This low-level format processor should normally be used in conjunction with one or more `filter' objects, such as EmblProcessor.

Many ideas borrowed from the old EmblFormat processor by Thomas Down and Thad Welch.

Constructor Detail

### EmblLikeFormat

    public EmblLikeFormat()

  Deprecated.

Method Detail

### setElideSymbols

    public void setElideSymbols(boolean b)

  Deprecated.

  Specifies whether the symbols (SQ) part of the entry should be ignored. If this property is set to `true`, the parser will never call addSymbols on the `SeqIOListener`, but parsing will be faster if you're only interested in header information.

  This property also allows the header to be parsed for files which have invalid sequence data.

### getElideSymbols

    public boolean getElideSymbols()

  Deprecated.
  Return a flag indicating if symbol data will be skipped when parsing streams.

### readSequence

    public boolean readSequence(BufferedReader reader,
                                SymbolTokenization symParser,
                                SeqIOListener listener)
                         throws IllegalSymbolException,
                                IOException,
                                ParseException

  Deprecated.
  Description copied from interface: `SequenceFormat`
  Read a sequence and pass data on to a SeqIOListener.

  Specified by:
    `readSequence` in interface `SequenceFormat`
  Parameters:
    `reader` - The stream of data to parse.
    `symParser` - A SymbolParser defining a mapping from character data to Symbols.
    `listener` - A listener to notify when data is extracted from the stream.
  Returns:
    a boolean indicating whether or not the stream contains any more sequences.
  Throws:
    `IllegalSymbolException` - if it is not possible to translate character data from the stream into valid BioJava symbols.
    `IOException` - if an error occurs while reading from the stream.
    `ParseException`

### processSequenceLine

    protected void processSequenceLine(String line,
                                       StreamParser parser)
                                throws IllegalSymbolException,
                                       ParseException

  Deprecated.
  Dispatch symbol data from SQ-block line of an EMBL-like file.

  Throws:
    `IllegalSymbolException`
    `ParseException`

### writeSequence

    public void writeSequence(Sequence seq,
                              PrintStream os)
                       throws IOException

  Deprecated.
  Description copied from interface: `SequenceFormat`
  `writeSequence` writes a sequence to the specified PrintStream, using the default format.

  Specified by:
    `writeSequence` in interface `SequenceFormat`
  Parameters:
    `seq` - the sequence to write out.
    `os` - the printstream to write to.
  Throws:
    `IOException`

### writeSequence

    public void writeSequence(Sequence seq,
                              String format,
                              PrintStream os)
                       throws IOException

  Deprecated. use writeSequence(Sequence seq, PrintStream os)

  `writeSequence` writes a sequence to the specified `PrintStream`, using the specified format.

  Specified by:
    `writeSequence` in interface `SequenceFormat`
  Parameters:
    `seq` - a `Sequence` to write out.
    `format` - a `String` indicating which sub-format of those available from a particular `SequenceFormat` implemention to use when writing.

  Returns:
    a `String`.

### BadLineParsed

    public void BadLineParsed(ParseErrorEvent theEvent)

  This method determines the behaviour when a bad line is processed. Some options are to log the error, throw an exception, ignore it completely, or pass the event through.

  This method should be overwritten when different behavior is desired.

  Specified by:
    `BadLineParsed` in interface `ParseErrorListener`
  Parameters:
    `theEvent` - The event that contains the bad line and token.

### addParseErrorListener

    public void addParseErrorListener(ParseErrorListener theListener)

    public void removeParseErrorListener(ParseErrorListener theListener)

  Deprecated.
  Removes a parse error listener from the list of listeners if it is included.

  Specified by:
    `removeParseErrorListener` in interface `ParseErrorSource`
  Parameters:
    `theListener` - Listener to be removed.

### notifyParseErrorEvent

    protected void notifyParseErrorEvent(ParseErrorEvent theEvent)
