public class BioFlatIndex extends Object
BioFlatIndex is a user application for performing
sequence flat file indexing according to the Open Bioinformatics
Database Access (OBDA) indexing standard. It may be used to create
a new index or to update an existing index with new files. When
creating a new index the sequence file format (currently one of
'fasta', 'swissprot', 'embl' or 'genbank', case-insensitive) and
alphabet ('dna', 'rna', 'aa', case-insensitive) must be
indicated. This information is stored in the index and is used by
the sequence retrieval code to determine how to treat the indexed
file(s). See the FLAT-DATABASES-HOWTO for more information.
