APPENDIX

       This is actually the main documentation...

       If you try to call any of these methods directly on this "Bio::Factory::AnalysisI" object you will get a not implemented error message. You
       need to call them on a "Bio::Tools::Run::AnalysisFactory" object instead.

   available_categories
	Usage	: $factory->available_categories;
	Returns : an array reference with the names of
		  available categories
	Args	: none

       The analysis tools may be grouped into categories by their functional similarity, or by the similar data types they deal with. This method
       shows all available such categories.

   available_analyses
	Usage	: $factory->available_analyses;
		  $factory->available_analyses ($category);
	Returns : an array reference with the names of
		  all available analyses, or the analyses
		  available in the given '$category'
	Args	: none || category_name

       Show available analyses. Their names usually consist of category analysis names, separated by "::".

   create_analysis
	Usage	: $factory->create_analysis ($name);
	Returns : a Bio::Tools::Run::Analyis object
	Args	: analysis name

       A real factory method creating an analysis object. The created object gets all access and location information from the factory object.
