[Bioperl-l] Pulling down data from NCBI

[Abhishek Pratap]

Hi All

I looking to batch download some 34K nucleotide sequences,
corresponding to a NCBI accession number. I tired the following and
getting an error. Has it got anything to do with recent update to code
that Chris was discussing.



my $factory = Bio::DB::EUtilities->new  (
					-eutil	=> 'efecth',
					-db 	=>	'nucleotide',
					-retype	=>	'fasta',
					-id		=> $id
				);


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