NAME
Bio::Tools::Run::Analysis::soap - A SOAP-based access to the analysis tools
SYNOPSIS
Do not use this object directly, it is recommended to access it and use it through the
"Bio::Tools::Run::Analysis" module:
use Bio::Tools::Run::Analysis;
my $tool = Bio::Tools::Run::Analysis->new(-access => 'soap',
-name => 'seqret');
DESCRIPTION
This object allows to execute and to control a remote analysis tool (an application, a program) using the
SOAP middleware,
All its public methods are documented in the interface module "Bio::AnalysisI" and explained in tutorial
available in the "analysis.pl" script.
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.

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

APPENDIX
Here is the rest of the object methods. Internal methods are preceded with an underscore _.
_initialize
Usage : my $tool = Bio::Tools::Run::Analysis->new(-access => 'soap',
-name => 'seqret',
...);
(_initialize is internally called from the 'new()' method)
Returns : nothing interesting
Args : This module recognises and uses following arguments:
-location
-name
-httpproxy
-timeout
Additionally, the main module Bio::Tools::Run::Analysis
recognises also:
-access
It populates calling object with the given arguments, and then - for some attributes and only if they are
not yet populated - it assigns some default values.
This is an actual new() method (except for the real object creation and its blessing which is done in the
parent class Bio::Root::Root in method _create_object).
Note that this method is called always as an object method (never as a class method) - and that the
object who calls this method may already be partly initiated (from Bio::Tools::Run::Analysis::new
method); so if you need to do some tricks with the 'class invocation' you need to change Bio::Analysis
new method, not this one.
-location
A URL (also called an endpoint) defining where is located a Web Service representing this analysis
tool.
Default is "http://www.ebi.ac.uk/soaplab/services" (services running at European Bioinformatics
Institute on top of most of EMBOSS analyses, and few others).
For example, if you run your own Web Service using Java(TM) Apache Axis toolkit, the location might
be something like "http://localhost:8080/axis/services".
-name
A name of a Web Service (also called a urn or a namespace). There is no default value (which usually
means that this parameter is mandatory unless your -location parameter includes also a Web Service
name).
-destroy_on_exit => '0'
Default value is '1' which means that all Bio::Tools::Run::Analysis::Job objects - when being
finalised - will send a request to the remote Web Service to forget the results of these jobs.
If you change it to '0' make sure that you know the job identification - otherwise you will not be
able to re-established connection with it (later, when you use your script again). This can be done
by calling method "id" on the job object (such object is returned by any of these methods:
"create_job", "run", "wait_for").
-httpproxy
In addition to the location parameter, you may need to specify also a location/URL of an HTTP proxy
server (if your site requires one). The expected format is "http://server:port". There is no default
value.
-timeout
For long(er) running jobs the HTTP connection may be time-outed. In order to avoid it (or, vice-
versa, to call timeout sooner) you may specify "timeout" with the number of seconds the connection
will be kept alive. Zero means to keep it alive forever. The default value is two minutes.
is_binary
Usage : if ($service->is_binary ('graph_result')) { ... }
Returns : 1 or 0
Args : $name is a result name we are interested in
VERSION and Revision
Usage : print $Bio::Tools::Run::Analysis::soap::VERSION;
print $Bio::Tools::Run::Analysis::soap::Revision;
Defaults
Usage : print $Bio::Tools::Run::Analysis::soap::DEFAULT_LOCATION;
