Release notes:
BioCocoa 2.1.0 -- (found in Tags / 2.1.0)
- New BCSuffixArray and BCMCP classes for constructing disk-based suffix arrays of sequences and finding the maximum common prefixes of sequences using those suffix arrays. This is work based upon the following publication:
Scott Christley, Neil F. Lobo and Greg Madey.
Multiple Organism Algorithm for Finding Ultraconserved Elements.
BMC Bioinformatics, 9: 15, 2008.
- New BCCachedSequenceFile and BCCachedFastaFile classes that allow for reading sequence data without reading the whole sequence into memory. This is useful for working with very large sequences like whole genomes. A future release will support a BCCachedSequence which provides a consistent sequence interface regardless of whether the sequence is in memory or cached on disk.
- File format can be explictly provided to BCSequenceReader using BCFileFormat.
- Documentation updates.
- More complete port to GNUstep, all BCFoundation functionality should be available.
- Quad-fat binary supporting 32/64-bit and ppc/intel processors.
