NAME

Bio::Ontology::SimpleGOEngine::GraphAdaptor - Graph adaptor for Bio::Ontology::SimpleGOEngine

SYNOPSIS

use Bio::Ontology::SimpleGOEngine::GraphAdaptor;

my $graph = Bio::Ontology::SimpleGOEngine::GraphAdaptor;

DESCRIPTION

This is a think adaptor to simplify use of the old and new versions of the standard CPAN Graph module (old is versions 0.2x; new is 0.5x and beyond) within Bio::Ontology::SimpleGOEngine.

This module implements only those Graph methods used by SimpleGOEngine. It is far from a complete compatibility layer! It also implements workarounds for cerain performance problems in the current versions of Graph v0.5x.

This class provides a 'new' method that determines which version of Graph is available. The object returned by 'new' is blessed into this class if the new version of Graph is available, else into the subclass

Bio::Ontology::SimpleGOEngine::GraphAdaptor02

This class provides implementations for the required graph methods using the new version of Graph. In most cases, these are simple pass-throughs. Methods that differ in v0.2x are implemented in the subclass.

The methods implemented here or in the subclasses are listed below. In all cases, we implemented the Graph v0.5x interface. Consult the Graph v0.5x man page for details.

add_vertex
has_vertex
add_edge
has_edge
vertices
edges
edges_at
predecessors
successors
set_vertex_attribute

FEEDBACK

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.

Support

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

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.
