Detailed Description

This class serves for reading in and writing FASTA files If the protein/gene sequence contains unusual symbols (such as translation end (*)), they will be kept! You can use aggregate methods load() and store() to read/write a set of protein sequences at the cost of memory.

Or use single read/write of protein sequences using readStart(), readNext() and writeStart(), writeNext(), writeEnd() for more memory efficiency. Reading from one and writing to another FASTA file can be handled by one single FASTAFile instance.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ FASTAFile()

FASTAFile ( )

default

Default constructor.

◆ ~FASTAFile()

~FASTAFile ( )

overridedefault

Destructor.

Member Function Documentation

◆ atEnd()

bool atEnd ( )

is stream at EOF?

◆ load()

void load	(	const String &	filename,
		std::vector< FASTAEntry > &	data
	)		const

loads a FASTA file given by 'filename' and stores the information in 'data' This uses more RAM than readStart() and readNext().

Exceptions

Exception::FileNotFound	is thrown if the file does not exists.
Exception::ParseError	is thrown if the file does not suit to the standard.

Referenced by NucleicAcidSearchEngine::main_().

◆ position()

std::streampos position ( )

current stream position

◆ readEntry_()

bool readEntry_	(	std::string &	id,
		std::string &	description,
		std::string &	seq
	)

protected

Reads a protein entry from the current file position and returns the ID and sequence.

Returns: Return true if the protein entry was read and saved successfully, false otherwise

◆ readNext()

bool readNext ( FASTAEntry & protein )

Reads the next FASTA entry from file. If you want to read all entries in one go, use load().

Returns: true if entry was read; false if EOF was reached

Exceptions

Exception::FileNotFound	is thrown if the file does not exists.
Exception::ParseError	is thrown if the file does not suit to the standard.

◆ readStart()

void readStart ( const String & filename )

Prepares a FASTA file given by 'filename' for streamed reading using readNext().

Exceptions

Exception::FileNotFound	is thrown if the file does not exists.
Exception::ParseError	is thrown if the file does not suit to the standard.

◆ setPosition()

bool setPosition ( const std::streampos & pos )

seek stream to pos

◆ store()

void store	(	const String &	filename,
		const std::vector< FASTAEntry > &	data
	)		const

stores the data given by 'data' at the file 'filename'

This uses more RAM than writeStart() and writeNext().

Exceptions

Exception::UnableToCreateFile is thrown if the process is not able to write the file.

◆ writeEnd()

void writeEnd ( )

Closes the file (flush). Called implicitly when FASTAFile object goes out of scope.

◆ writeNext()

void writeNext ( const FASTAEntry & protein )

Stores the data given by protein. Call writeStart() once before calling writeNext(). Call writeEnd() when done to close the file!

Exceptions

Exception::UnableToCreateFile is thrown if the process is not able to write the file.

◆ writeStart()

void writeStart ( const String & filename )

Prepares a FASTA file given by 'filename' for streamed writing using writeNext().

Exceptions

Exception::UnableToCreateFile is thrown if the process is not able to write to the file (disk full?).
