Hi Rémi,

As far as I know, cloning objects is not natively supported in BioPerl (or Perl itself, for that matter).

So I don't think the code you showed will work.

However, there are modules such as Clone::More and Clone::Fast that can do it.

http://search.cpan.org/~wazzuteke/Clone-More-0.90.2/lib/Clone/More.pm
http://search.cpan.org/~wazzuteke/Clone-Fast-0.93/lib/Clone/Fast.pm


Out of curiosity, what are you trying to do with the cloned objects? Someone might be able to suggest another way to accomplish the same goal.

Dave
