NAME

       Bio::Seq::SeqFactory - Instantiates a new Bio::PrimarySeqI (or derived class) through a factory

SYNOPSIS

	   use Bio::Seq::SeqFactory;
	   my $factory = Bio::Seq::SeqFactory->new();
	   my $seq = $factory->create(-seq => 'WYRAVLC',
				      -id  => 'name');

	   # If you want the factory to create Bio::Seq objects instead
	   # of the default Bio::PrimarySeq objects, use the -type parameter:

	   my $factory = Bio::Seq::SeqFactory->new(-type => 'Bio::Seq');

DESCRIPTION

       This object will build Bio::PrimarySeqI and Bio::SeqI objects generically.

FEEDBACK

   Mailing Lists
       User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other Bioperl modules. Send your comments and suggestions preferably to the
       Bioperl mailing list.  Your participation is much appreciated.

       rather than to the module maintainer directly. Many experienced and reponsive experts will be able look at the problem and quickly address
       it. Please include a thorough description of the problem with code and data examples if at all possible.

APPENDIX

       The rest of the documentation details each of the object methods.  Internal methods are usually preceded with a _

   new
	Title	: new
	Usage	: my $obj = Bio::Seq::SeqFactory->new();
	Function: Builds a new Bio::Seq::SeqFactory object
	Returns : Bio::Seq::SeqFactory
	Args	: -type => string, name of a PrimarySeqI derived class
			   This is optional. Default=Bio::PrimarySeq.

   create
	Title	: create
	Usage	: my $seq = $seqbuilder->create(-seq => 'CAGT', -id => 'name');
	Function: Instantiates new Bio::SeqI (or one of its child classes)
		  This object allows us to genericize the instantiation of sequence
		  objects.
	Returns : Bio::PrimarySeq object (default)
		  The return type is configurable using new(-type =>"...").
	Args	: initialization parameters specific to the type of sequence
		  object we want.  Typically
		  -seq	      => $str,
		  -display_id => $name

   type
	Title	: type
	Usage	: $obj->type($newval)
	Function:
	Returns : value of type
	Args	: newvalue (optional)
