[Biojava-dev] SeqIOTools method not found

[Andy Yates]

Hi.

A quick look on the latest Biojava API shows that there is a method like 
this & this is also in the current src tree that I downloaded from 
biojava just now:

http://www.biojava.org/docs/api14/org/biojava/bio/seq/io/SeqIOTools.html#writeFasta(java.io.OutputStream,%20org.biojava.bio.seq.Sequence)

My suggestions would be to check your classpath and check your imports 
in your class file. You should have:

import org.biojava.bio.seq.io.SeqIOTools;

At the top of the class file. Make sure it is after the package 
declaration and before the class definition.

Cheers,

Andy Yates

In biojava source code, I couldn't find the method named as "writeFasta" in SeqIOTools with "Sequence" as the 2nd parameter, neither did I find any methods with 'Sequence' as the 2nd parameter, but they all show up on API.
