[Bioperl-l] Bio::Tools::Run::Cap3 - Parameters

[Michael Stubbington]

Hi Brian,


Thanks for your reply.

 

If I do that it doesn't throw the exception any more but it also doesn't
successfully assemble the reads that need the -y 150 flag.

Michael,

 

In Bio/Tools/Run/CAP3.pm you see this at the top:

 

BEGIN {

    @PARAMS     = qw(a b c d e f g m n o p s u v x);

    $PROGRAMDIR = '/usr/local/bin';

 

    # Authorize attribute fields

    foreach my $attr (@PARAMS) { $OK_FIELD{$attr}++; }

}

 

If you add the letter y to @PARAMS does it work?

 

 

Brian O.

Dear all,



I am using the Bio::Tools::Run::Cap3 wrapper to the Cap3 assembly
program. I have some reads that will only assemble if cap3 is used with
the '-y 150' option. This is fine from the command line but I can't work
out how to pass this option to the Cap3 factory object in my script.



If I do the following



my $params =  "y 150" ;

my $cap3Factory = Bio::Tools::Run::Cap3->new($params);

my $assembly = $cap3Factory->run($file);



Then I get an exception as follows:



------------- EXCEPTION: Bio::Root::Exception -------------

MSG: Unallowed parameter: y !

STACK: Error::throw

STACK: Bio::Root::Root::throw
/Users/mike/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.9/Bio/Root/Root.pm:357

STACK: Bio::Tools::Run::Cap3::AUTOLOAD
/Users/mike/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.9/Bio/Tools/Run/Cap3.pm:116

STACK: Bio::Tools::Run::Cap3::new
/Users/mike/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.9/Bio/Tools/Run/Cap3.pm:101

STACK: /Users/mike/perlScripts/QGenotype.pl:150



If I don't try to pass any parameters to Cap3 it runs fine but just
fails to assemble the reads that need the -y 150 flag.



I'd very much appreciate any help with this. I'm pretty new to bioperl,
hope I haven't missed anything obvious!



Thanks in advance,



Mike
