.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
The module \f(CW\*(C`Bio::Tools::Run::Analysis\*(C'\fR provides access to the local and remote
analysis tools in a unified way (defined in \f(CW\*(C`Bio::AnalysisI\*(C'\fR). The
module uses general approach allowing to set arbitrary input data and
to retrieve results by naming them. However, sometimes is more
convenient to use a specific module, representing one analysis tool,
that already knows about available input and result names.
.PP
The generator \f(CW\*(C`papplmaker.PLS\*(C'\fR creates such dedicated modules.
.PP
\&\f(CW\*(C`papplmaker.PLS\*(C'\fR uses the same access method as the general module \-
which means that depending on the parameter \f(CW\*(C`access\*(C'\fR it can use \s-1SOAP,
CORBA\s0 or any other (supported) protocol, or it can access local
analysis (available on the same machine where \f(CW\*(C`papplmaker.PLS\*(C'\fR is
invoked).
.PP
\&\f(CW\*(C`papplmaker.PLS\*(C'\fR does its job either for one named analysis (specified
by the \f(CW\*(C`\-n\*(C'\fR option, or it uses \f(CW\*(C`Bio::Tools::Run::AnalysisFactory\*(C'\fR module in
order to find what analyses are available, and can limit their number
by matching against a regular expression given by the \f(CW\*(C`\-r\*(C'\fR option.
.PP
The generated module or modules are named by default similarly to the
names of the corresponding analyses, but this can be changed by the
\&\f(CW\*(C`\-m\*(C'\fR option which is actually a template where the following strings
are recognised and replaced:
.ie n .IP "$ANALYSIS or ${\s-1ANALYSIS\s0}" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW$ANALYSIS\fR or ${\s-1ANALYSIS\s0}" 4
.IX Item "$ANALYSIS or ${ANALYSIS}"
Will be replaced by the name of the analysis.
.ie n .IP "$CATEGORY or ${\s-1CATEGORY\s0}" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW$CATEGORY\fR or ${\s-1CATEGORY\s0}" 4
.IX Item "$CATEGORY or ${CATEGORY}"
Will be replaced by the name of the category where the analysis belongs to.
.ie n .IP "$SERVICE or ${\s-1SERVICE\s0}" 4
.el .IP "\f(CW$SERVICE\fR or ${\s-1SERVICE\s0}" 4
.IX Item "$SERVICE or ${SERVICE}"
Will be replaced by the entire name of the service (which is usually a
concatenation of a category and a analysis name, and it is used also
as a default module name, btw).
.PP
What is a difference between the \f(CW\*(C`service\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`analysis\*(C'\fR, and what
does \f(CW\*(C`category\*(C'\fR mean? Sometimes these terms may be confusing because
they may mean slightly different things depending on the access method
used to communicate with them. Generally, an \f(CW\*(C`analysis\*(C'\fR is a program
(an application, a tool) running somewhere, but sometimes on a local
machine. An example of an analysis is \f(CW\*(C`seqret\*(C'\fR (from the \s-1EMBOSS\s0
package). The analyses can be grouped into categories by their
functions or by type of data they deal with (but sometimes there are
no categories at all). Each analyses can be accessed using a higher
level of abstraction, a \f(CW\*(C`service\*(C'\fR. A service is usually a
protocol-dependent wrapper, such as a Web Service, or a \s-1CORBA\s0
service. For example there is a \f(CW\*(C`edit::seqret\*(C'\fR service which
represents analysis \f(CW\*(C`seqret\*(C'\fR in the category \f(CW\*(C`edit\*(C'\fR.
