=head1 NAME

Bio::Assembly::IO - Handler for Assembly::IO Formats

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use Bio::Assembly::IO;

    $in  = Bio::Assembly::IO->new(-file=>"<inputfilename",
                                  -format=>'phrap');
    $out = Bio::Assembly::IO->new(-file=>">outputfilename",
                                  -format=>'phrap');

    while ( my $scaffold = $in->next_assembly() ) {
       # do something with Bio::Assembly::Scaffold instance
       # ...
       $out->write_assembly(-scaffold => $scaffold);
    }

    $in->close;
    $out->close;

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Bio::Assembly::IO is a handler module for formats in the Assembly::IO set
(e.g. Bio::Assembly::IO::phrap).

=head1 FEEDBACK

=head2 Mailing Lists

User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other
Bioperl modules. Send your comments and suggestions preferably to the
Bioperl mailing lists  Your participation is much appreciated.

  bioperl-l@bioperl.org                  - General discussion
  http://bioperl.org/wiki/Mailing_lists  - About the mailing lists

=head2 Support 

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

I<bioperl-l@bioperl.org>

rather than to the module maintainer directly. Many experienced and 
reponsive experts will be able look at the problem and quickly 
address it. Please include a thorough description of the problem 
with code and data examples if at all possible.

=head2 Reporting Bugs

Report bugs to the Bioperl bug tracking system to help us keep track
the bugs and their resolution.  Bug reports can be submitted via the
web:

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

=head2 new

 Title   : new
 Usage   : Bio::Assembly::IO->new(-file =>$filename,-format=>'format')
 Function: Returns a new assembly stream
 Returns : A Bio::Assembly::IO::Handler initialised
           with the appropriate format
 Args    : -file => $filename
           -format => format

=head2 next_assembly

 Title   : next_assembly
 Usage   : $cluster = $stream->next_assembly()
 Function: Reads the next assembly object from the stream and returns it.
 Returns : a Bio::Assembly::ScaffoldI compliant object
 Args    : none

=cut

=head2 write_assembly

  Title   : write_assembly
  Usage   : $ass_io->write_assembly($assembly)
  Function: Write the assembly object in Phrap compatible ACE format
  Returns : 1 on success, 0 for error
  Args    : A Bio::Assembly::Scaffold object

=cut

sub write_assembly {
   shift->throw_not_implemented;

=head2 _load_format_module

 Title   : _load_format_module
 Usage   : *INTERNAL Assembly::IO stuff*
 Function: Loads up (like use) a module at run time on demand
 Example :
 Returns :
 Args    :

=cut

sub _load_format_module {
  my ($self,$format) = @_;
  my $module = "Bio::Assembly::IO::" . $format;
  my $ok;

$self: could not load $format - for more details on supported formats please see the Assembly::IO docs
Exception $@
END
  ;
  }
  return $ok;
}

=head2 _guess_format

 Title   : _guess_format
 Usage   : $obj->_guess_format($filename)
 Function: guess format based on file suffix
 Example :
 Returns : guessed format of filename (lower case)
 Args    :
 Notes   : formats that _filehandle() will guess includes
           only phrap, by now.

=cut
