[Biococoa-dev] BCCodon bug (?)

[Koen van der Drift]

John,

The method AminoAcidSymbolString in BCCodon returns the symbol '*'  
when theAminoAcid is nil. However, if you pass that in an NSString to 
BCSequenceProtein the code crashes, because '*' is not an entry in the 
amino acids plist. For gaps the entry in the plist is a hyphen. Maybe 
there is a specific reason to use the asterisk, in that case I will add 
a line to BCSequenceProtein to skip that symbol. Otherwise, can you 
change AminoAcidSymbolString to return an hyphen?

Also, change the name of the method to aminoAcidSymbolString (first 
letter should be lowercase).


thanks,

- Koen.
