APPENDIX
The rest of the documentation details each of the object methods. Internal methods are usually preceded with a _
remove_synonyms
Title : remove_synonyms
Usage :
Function: Removes all synonyms for an ontology term.
Example :
Returns : TRUE on success, and FALSE otherwise.
Args : The calling persistence adaptor.
The persistent term object for which to remove the synonyms
(a Bio::DB::PersistentObjectI compliant object with defined
primary key).store_synonym
Title : store_synonym
Usage :
Function: Stores a synonym for an ontology term.
Example :
Returns : TRUE on success, and FALSE otherwise.
Args : The calling persistence adaptor.
The persistent term object for which to store the synonym
(a Bio::DB::PersistentObjectI compliant object with defined
primary key).
The synonym to store (a scalar). get_synonyms
Title : get_synonyms
Usage :
Function: Retrieves the synonyms for an ontology term and adds them
the term's synonyms.
Example :
Returns : TRUE on success, and FALSE otherwise.
Args : The calling persistence adaptor.
The persistent term object for which to retrieve the
synonyms (a Bio::DB::PersistentObjectI compliant object
with defined primary key).bind_param
Title : bind_param
Usage :
Function: Binds a parameter value to a prepared statement.
We override this in order to possibly truncate term
definitions longer than 4000 characters, the limit of
Oracle's VARCHAR2 data type. Note that this problem does
not exist with Pg's and mysql's text types.
Example :
Returns : the return value of the DBI::bind_param() call
Args : the DBI statement handle to bind to
the index of the column (1-based)
the value to bind
additional arguments to be passed to the sth->bind_param call
