=head1 NAME

Bio::SeqIO::seqxml - SeqXML sequence input/output stream

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  # Do not use this module directly.  Use it via the Bio::SeqIO class.

  use Bio::SeqIO;
  
  # read a SeqXML file
  my $seqio = Bio::SeqIO->new(-format => 'seqxml',
                              -file   => 'my_seqs.xml');

  while (my $seq_object = $seqio->next_seq) {
      print join("\t", 
                 $seq_object->display_id,
                 $seq_object->description,
                 $seq_object->seq,           
                ), "\n";
  }
  
  # write a SeqXML file
  #
  # Note that you can (optionally) specify the source
  # (usually a database) and source version.
  my $seqwriter = Bio::SeqIO->new(-format        => 'seqxml',
                                  -file          => ">outfile.xml",
                                  -source        => 'Ensembl',
                                  -sourceVersion => '56');
  $seqwriter->write_seq($seq_object);

  # once you've written all of your seqs, you may want to do
  # an explicit close to get the closing </seqXML> tag
  $seqwriter->close; 

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This object can transform Bio::Seq objects to and from SeqXML format.
For more information on the SeqXML standard, visit L<http://www.seqxml.org>.

In short, SeqXML is a lightweight sequence format that takes advantage
of the validation capabilities of XML while not overburdening you
with a strict and complicated schema.

This module is based in part (particularly the XML-parsing part) on 
Bio::TreeIO::phyloxml by Mira Han.

=head2 Mailing Lists

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

=head2 Support 

Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list:

I<bioperl-l@bioperl.org>

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.

=head2 Reporting Bugs

Report bugs to the Bioperl bug tracking system to help us keep track
the bugs and their resolution.  Bug reports can be submitted via the

=head2 _initialize

 Title   : _initialize
 Usage   : $self->_initialize(@args) 
 Function: constructor (for internal use only).
 
           Besides the usual SeqIO arguments (-file, -fh, etc.),
           Bio::SeqIO::seqxml accepts three arguments which are used
           when writing out a seqxml file. They are all optional.
 Returns : none
 Args    : -source         => source string (usually a database name)
           -sourceVersion  => source version. The version number of the source
           -seqXMLversion  => the version of seqXML that will be used
 Throws  : Exception if XML::LibXML::Reader or XML::Writer
           is not initialized
