Hello,
I have just uploaded an alternate implementation for NCBIQBlastService
to biojava-live (available in org.biojava3.ws.alignment.qblast2 package).
The main difference is that this service accepts any Blast URL-API
(http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/BLAST/Doc/urlapi.html) parameters set using
corresponding setAlignmentOption/setOutputOption methods.
For example, you could specify Entrez query by calling
setAlignementOption("ENTREZ_QUERY", "query string") for
NCBIQBlastAlignmentProperties2 object and it, along with any other
alignment options, would be transformed to Blast URL parameters.
I think it should either be merged with the current implementation or
kept as an alternate to maintain backwards-compatibility for current
service users. Any thoughts on that?
