Constructor Detail

### SequenceAnnotation

    public SequenceAnnotation(String type,
                              String identifier,
                              Result result)

  Creates a new `SequenceAnnotation` of type `type` with identifier `identifier` and additional annotation (that does not fit the `SequenceAnnotation` definitions) given as a `Result` `result`.

  Parameters:
    `type` - the type of the annotation
    `identifier` - the identifier of the annotation
    `result` - the additional annotation
  See Also:
    `ResultSet.ResultSet(Result)`

### SequenceAnnotation

    public SequenceAnnotation(String type,
                              String identifier,
                              Result[]... results)

  Creates a new `SequenceAnnotation` of type `type` with identifier `identifier` and additional annotation (that does not fit the `SequenceAnnotation` definitions) given as an array of `Result`s `results`.

  Parameters:
    `type` - the type of the annotation
    `identifier` - the identifier of the annotation
    `results` - the additional annotation
  See Also:
    `ResultSet.ResultSet(Result[][])`

### SequenceAnnotation

    public SequenceAnnotation(String type,
                              String identifier,
                              SequenceAnnotation[] subAnnotations,
                              Result... additionalAnnotation)

  Creates a new `SequenceAnnotation` of type `type` with identifier `identifier` and additional annotation (that does not fit the `SequenceAnnotation` definitions) given as an array of `Result`s `additionalAnnotation`. This `SequenceAnnotation` may contain sub-annotations `subAnnotations`, this may be e.g. the donor and acceptor site for splice sites or the exons for a gene.

  Parameters:
    `type` - the type of the annotation
    `identifier` - the identifier of the annotation
    `subAnnotations` - the sub-annotation
    `additionalAnnotation` - the additional annotation
  See Also:
    `ResultSet.ResultSet(Result[][])`

### SequenceAnnotation

    public SequenceAnnotation(String type,
                              String identifier,
                              Collection<? extends Result> results)

  Creates a new `SequenceAnnotation` of type `type` with identifier `identifier` and additional annotation (that does not fit the `SequenceAnnotation` definitions) given as a `Collection` of `Result`s `results`.

  Parameters:
    `type` - the type of the annotation
    `identifier` - the identifier of the annotation
    `results` - the additional annotation
  See Also:
    `ResultSet.ResultSet(Collection)`

### SequenceAnnotation

    public SequenceAnnotation(StringBuffer representation)
                       throws NonParsableException

  The standard constructor for the interface `Storable`. Creates a new `SequenceAnnotation` out of its XML representation.

  Parameters:
    `representation` - the XML representation as `StringBuffer`
  Throws:
    `NonParsableException` - if the `SequenceAnnotation` could not be reconstructed out of the XML representation (the `StringBuffer` `representation` could not be parsed)
  See Also:
    `ResultSet.ResultSet(StringBuffer)`, `Storable`
