=head1 NAME

Bio::Tools::Genscan - Results of one Genscan run

=head1 SYNOPSIS

   use Bio::Tools::Genscan;

   $genscan = Bio::Tools::Genscan->new(-file => 'result.genscan');
   # filehandle:
   $genscan = Bio::Tools::Genscan->new( -fh  => \*INPUT );

   # parse the results
   # note: this class is-a Bio::Tools::AnalysisResult which implements
   # Bio::SeqAnalysisParserI, i.e., $genscan->next_feature() is the same
   while($gene = $genscan->next_prediction()) {
       # $gene is an instance of Bio::Tools::Prediction::Gene, which inherits
       # off Bio::SeqFeature::Gene::Transcript.
       #
       # $gene->exons() returns an array of 
       # Bio::Tools::Prediction::Exon objects
       # all exons:
       @exon_arr = $gene->exons();

       # initial exons only
       @init_exons = $gene->exons('Initial');
       # internal exons only
       @intrl_exons = $gene->exons('Internal');
       # terminal exons only
       @term_exons = $gene->exons('Terminal');
       # singleton exons: 
       ($single_exon) = $gene->exons();
   }

   # essential if you gave a filename at initialization (otherwise the file
   # will stay open)
   $genscan->close();

=head1 DESCRIPTION

The Genscan module provides a parser for Genscan gene structure prediction
output. It parses one gene prediction into a Bio::SeqFeature::Gene::Transcript-
derived object.

This module also implements the Bio::SeqAnalysisParserI interface, and thus
can be used wherever such an object fits. See L<Bio::SeqAnalysisParserI>.

=head1 FEEDBACK

=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

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

=cut


# Let the code begin...


package Bio::Tools::Genscan;
use strict;
use Symbol;

use Bio::Root::Root;
use Bio::Tools::Prediction::Gene;
use Bio::Tools::Prediction::Exon;

use base qw(Bio::Tools::AnalysisResult);

my %ExonTags = ('Init' => 'Initial',
		'Intr' => 'Internal',
		'Term' => 'Terminal',
		'Sngl' => '');
    
sub _initialize_state {
    my ($self,@args) = @_;
    
    # first call the inherited method!
    $self->SUPER::_initialize_state(@args);

    # our private state variables
    $self->{'_preds_parsed'} = 0;
    $self->{'_has_cds'} = 0;
    # array of pre-parsed predictions
    $self->{'_preds'} = [];
    # seq stack
    $self->{'_seqstack'} = [];
}

=head2 analysis_method

 Usage     : $genscan->analysis_method();
 Purpose   : Inherited method. Overridden to ensure that the name matches
             /genscan/i.
 Returns   : String
 Argument  : n/a

=cut

#-------------
sub analysis_method { 
#-------------
    my ($self, $method) = @_;  
    if($method && ($method !~ /genscan/i)) {
	$self->throw("method $method not supported in " . ref($self));
    }
    return $self->SUPER::analysis_method($method);
}

=head2 next_feature

 Title   : next_feature
 Usage   : while($gene = $genscan->next_feature()) {
                  # do something
           }
 Function: Returns the next gene structure prediction of the Genscan result
           file. Call this method repeatedly until FALSE is returned.

           The returned object is actually a SeqFeatureI implementing object.
           This method is required for classes implementing the
           SeqAnalysisParserI interface, and is merely an alias for 
           next_prediction() at present.

 Example :
 Returns : A Bio::Tools::Prediction::Gene object.
 Args    :

=cut

sub next_feature {
    my ($self,@args) = @_;
    # even though next_prediction doesn't expect any args (and this method
    # does neither), we pass on args in order to be prepared if this changes
    # ever
    return $self->next_prediction(@args);
}

=head2 next_prediction

 Title   : next_prediction
 Usage   : while($gene = $genscan->next_prediction()) {
                  # do something
           }
 Function: Returns the next gene structure prediction of the Genscan result
           file. Call this method repeatedly until FALSE is returned.

 Example :
 Returns : A Bio::Tools::Prediction::Gene object.
 Args    :

=cut

sub next_prediction {
    my ($self) = @_;
    my $gene;

    # if the prediction section hasn't been parsed yet, we do this now
    $self->_parse_predictions() unless $self->_predictions_parsed();

    # get next gene structure
    $gene = $self->_prediction();

    if($gene) {
	# fill in predicted protein, and if available the predicted CDS
	#
	my ($id, $seq);
	# use the seq stack if there's a seq on it
	my $seqobj = pop(@{$self->{'_seqstack'}});
	if(! $seqobj) {
	    # otherwise read from input stream
	    ($id, $seq) = $self->_read_fasta_seq();
	    # there may be no sequence at all, or none any more
	    if($id && $seq) {
		$seqobj = Bio::PrimarySeq->new('-seq' => $seq,
					       '-display_id' => $id,
					       '-alphabet' => "protein");
	    }
	}
	if($seqobj) {
	    # check that prediction number matches the prediction number
	    # indicated in the sequence id (there may be incomplete gene
	    # predictions that contain only signals with no associated protein
	    # and CDS, like promoters, poly-A sites etc)
	    $gene->primary_tag() =~ /[^0-9]([0-9]+)$/;
	    my $prednr = $1;
	    if($seqobj->display_id() !~ /_predicted_\w+_$prednr\|/) {
		# this is not our sequence, so push back for next prediction
		push(@{$self->{'_seqstack'}}, $seqobj);
	    } else {
		$gene->predicted_protein($seqobj);
		# CDS prediction, too?
		if($self->_has_cds()) {
		    ($id, $seq) = $self->_read_fasta_seq();
		    $seqobj = Bio::PrimarySeq->new('-seq' => $seq,
						   '-display_id' => $id,
						   '-alphabet' => "dna");
		    $gene->predicted_cds($seqobj);
		}
	    }
	}
    }

    return $gene;
}

=head2 _parse_predictions
