Bio::DB::LocationI(3) User Contributed Perl DocumentationBio::DB::LocationI(3)

NAME
       Bio::DB::LocationI - A RandomAccessI-like abstract interface for
       retrieving location data from a sequence database and returning
       Bio::LocationI objects

SYNOPSIS
	 #
	 # get a database object somehow using a concrete class
	 #

	 $loc = $db->get_Location_by_id('123456');

	 #
	 # $loc is a Bio::LocationI object
	 #

DESCRIPTION
       This is a pure interface class - in other words, all this does is
       define methods which other (concrete) classes will actually implement.

       The Bio::DB::LocationI class defines methods used to retrieve location
       data from a sequence.  This is returned in the form of Bio::LocationI
       objects, which can include:

       Bio::Location::Simple Bio::Location::Fuzzy Bio::Location::Split

       At the moment it is just the ability to make Bio::LocationI objects
       from a name or unique id (id), an accession number (acc), and so on.

CONTACT
       Ewan Birney originally wrote Bio::DB::RandomAccessI, from which this
       class is based.
