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.
