NAME

Bio::Tools::Analysis::SimpleAnalysisBase - abstract superclass for SimpleAnalysis implementations

SYNOPSIS

# not to be run directly

DESCRIPTION

This class is a generic implementation of SimpleAnalysisI and should be used as a base class for specific implementations.

Modules implementing SimpleAnalysisBase only need to provide specific _init(), _run() and result() methods, plus any get/set methods for parameters to the analysis program.

Support

Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list:

APPENDIX

The rest of the documentation details each of the object methods. Internal methods are usually preceded with a _

new

Usage   : $job->new(...)
Returns : a new analysis object, 
Args    : none (but an implementation may choose
          to add arguments representing parameters for the analysis
          program. Each key value of must have a method implemented
          for it in a subclass. A seq () method is provided here as
          this will probably be needed by all sequence analysis programs

seq

Usage   : $job->seq()
Returns : a Bio::PrimarySeqI implementing sequence object, or void
Args    : None, or a Bio::PrimarySeqI implementing object

analysis_name

Usage     : $analysis->analysis_name();
Returns   : The analysis name
Arguments : none

analysis_spec

Usage    :  $analysis->analysis_spec();
Returns  :  a hash reference to  a hash of analysis parameters. See
            Bio::SimpleAnalysisI for a list of recommended key values.
Arguments:  none

clear

Usage     : $analysis->clear();
Returns   : true value on success
Arguments : none
Purpose   : to remove raw results from a previous analysis so that
            an analysis can be repeated with different parameters.

input_spec

Usage     : $analysis->input_spec();
Returns   : a  reference to  an array of  hashes of analysis parameters. See
            Bio::SimpleAnalysisI for a list of recommended key values.
Arguments : none

result_spec

Usage     : $analysis->result_spec();
Returns   : a  reference to  a   hashes of resultformats. See
            Bio::SimpleAnalysisI for a list of recommended key values. 
            The key values can be used as parameters to the result() 
            method, the values provide descriptions.
Arguments : none
