[Bioperl-l] sub_SeqFeature written

Greetings All

I'm working on project in which a sub-feature would be very handy. I was
working with Bio::SeqFeature::Generic and using the add_sub_SeqFeature
method. It adds the subfeature and you can retrieve it, but when you
write the sequence object out via SeqIO(... -file => 'EMBL') the
subfeatures are not written to the file. Looking at embl.pm in SeqIO, it
appears as though the hash containing subfeatures is never referenced
and therefore never written. Did I miss something, or is this something
that is yet to be implemented?

Thanks.

Mike
