=head1 NAME

Bio::Tools::GFF - A Bio::SeqAnalysisParserI compliant GFF format parser

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use Bio::Tools::GFF;

    # specify input via -fh or -file
    my $gffio = Bio::Tools::GFF->new(-fh => \*STDIN, -gff_version => 2);
    my $feature;
    # loop over the input stream
    while($feature = $gffio->next_feature()) {
        # do something with feature
    }
    $gffio->close();

    # you can also obtain a GFF parser as a SeqAnalasisParserI in
    # HT analysis pipelines (see Bio::SeqAnalysisParserI and
    # Bio::Factory::SeqAnalysisParserFactory)
    my $factory = Bio::Factory::SeqAnalysisParserFactory->new();
    my $parser = $factory->get_parser(-input => \*STDIN, -method => "gff");
    while($feature = $parser->next_feature()) {
        # do something with feature
    }

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This class provides a simple GFF parser and writer. In the sense of a
SeqAnalysisParser, it parses an input file or stream into SeqFeatureI
objects, but is not in any way specific to a particular analysis
program and the output that program produces.

That is, if you can get your analysis program spit out GFF, here is
your result parser.

=head1 GFF3 AND SEQUENCE DATA

GFF3 supports sequence data; see

http://www.sequenceontology.org/gff3.shtml

There are a number of ways to deal with this -

If you call

  $gffio->ignore_sequence(1)

prior to parsing the sequence data is ignored; this is useful if you
just want the features. It avoids the memory overhead in building and
caching sequences

Alternatively, you can call either

  $gffio->get_seqs()

Or

  $gffio->seq_id_by_h()

At the B<end> of parsing to get either a list or hashref of Bio::Seq
objects (see the documentation for each of these methods)

Note that these objects will not have the features attached - you have
to do this yourself, OR call

  $gffio->features_attached_to_seqs(1)

PRIOR to parsing; this will ensure that the Seqs have the features
attached; ie you will then be able to call

  $seq->get_SeqFeatures();

And use Bio::SeqIO methods

Note that auto-attaching the features to seqs will incur a higher
memory overhead as the features must be cached until the sequence data
is found

=head1 TODO

Make a Bio::SeqIO class specifically for GFF3 with sequence data

=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 one
of the Bioperl mailing lists.  Your participation is much appreciated.

=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 the web:
