NAME

Bio::Tools::EUtilities::Query::GlobalQuery - container class for egquery data

SYNOPSIS

#### should not create instance directly; Bio::Tools::EUtilities does this ####

my $parser = Bio::Tools::EUtilities->new(-eutil => 'egquery',
                                         -term  => 'BRCA1');

# $gquery is a Bio::Tools::EUtilities::Query::GlobalQuery
while (my $gquery = $parser->next_GlobalQuery) {
   print $gquery->to_string."\n"; # stringify
   print "DB:".$gquery->get_db."\t".$gquery->get_count;
}

DESCRIPTION

This is a simple container class for egquery data. Currently this just contains various accessors for the data, such as get_database(), get_count(), etc. for each item in a global query.
