Bio::DB::GFF::Adaptor::dbi::mysql -- Database adaptor for a specific mysql schema use Bio::DB::GFF; my $db = Bio::DB::GFF->new(-adaptor=> 'memory', -gff => 'my_features.gff', -fasta => 'my_dna.fa' ); See Bio::DB::GFF for other methods. This adaptor implements an in-memory version of Bio::DB::GFF. It can be used to store and retrieve SHORT GFF files. It inherits from Bio::DB::GFF. Use Bio::DB::GFF->new() to construct new instances of this class. Three named arguments are recommended: Argument Description -adaptor Set to "memory" to create an instance of this class. -gff Read the indicated file or directory of .gff file. -fasta Read the indicated file or directory of fasta files. -dir Indicates a directory containing .gff and .fa files If you use the -dsn option and the indicated directory is writable by the current process, then this library will create a FASTA file index that greatly diminishes the memory usage of this module. See Bio::DB::GFF for inherited methods. none ;-) Bio::DB::GFF, bioperl Shuly Avraham <avraham@cshl.org>. Copyright (c) 2002 Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory.
