=head1 NAME

Bio::SearchIO::blastxml - A SearchIO implementation of NCBI Blast XML parsing. 

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use Bio::SearchIO;
    my $searchin = Bio::SearchIO->new(-format => 'blastxml',
				     -file   => 't/data/plague_yeast.bls.xml');
                     
    while( my $result = $searchin->next_result ) {
        ....
    }

    # one can also request that the parser NOT keep the XML data in memory
    # by using the tempfile initialization flag.
    
    $searchin = Bio::SearchIO->new(-tempfile => 1,
				     -format => 'blastxml',
				     -file   => 't/data/plague_yeast.bls.xml');
                     
    while( my $result = $searchin->next_result ) {
       ....
    }
    
    # PSI-BLAST parsing (default is normal BLAST)
    $searchin = Bio::SearchIO->new(
                     -format => 'blastxml',
                     -blasttype => 'psiblast',
				     -file   => 't/data/plague_yeast.bls.xml');
                     
    while( my $result = $searchin->next_result ) {
       ....
    }

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This object implements a NCBI Blast XML parser.  It requires XML::SAX; it is
also recommended (for faster parsing) that XML::SAX::ExpatXS or XML::LibXML
be installed.  Either 'XML::SAX::ExpatXS' or 'XML::LibXML::SAX::Parser' should
be set as the default parser in ParserDetails.ini.  This file is located in the
SAX subdirectory of XML in your local perl library (normally in the 'site'
directory).

Two different XML handlers currently exist to deal with logical differences
between how normal BLAST reports and PSI-BLAST reports are logically parsed into
BioPerl objects; this is explicitly settable using the B<-blasttype> parameter.
The default is for parsing a normal BLAST report ('blast'), but if one is
expecting PSI-BLAST report parsing, -blasttype B<must> be set explicitly to
'psiblast'. This is due to a lack of any information in the XML output which
tells the parser the report is derived from a PSI-BLAST run vs. a normal BLAST
run.

There is one additional initialization flag from the SearchIO defaults. That is
the B<-tempfile> flag. If specified as true, then the parser will write out each
report to a temporary filehandle rather than holding the entire report as a
string in memory. The reason this is done in the first place is NCBI reports
have an uncessary E<lt>?xml version="1.0"?E<gt> at the beginning of each report
and RPS-BLAST reports have an additional unnecessary RPS-BLAST tag at the top of
each report. So we currently have implemented the work around by preparsing the
file (yes it makes the process slower, but it works). We are open to suggestions
on how to optimize this in the future.

=head1 DEPENDENCIES

In addition to parts of the Bio:: hierarchy, this module uses:

 XML::SAX

It is also recommended that XML::SAX::ExpatXS be installed and made the default
XML::SAX parser using , along with the Expat library () for faster parsing.
XML::SAX::Expat is not recommended; XML::SAX::ExpatXS is considered the current
replacement for XML::SAX:Expat and is actively being considered to replace
XML::SAX::Expat. XML::SAX::Expat will work, but only if you have local copies of
the NCBI BLAST DTDs. This is due to issues with NCBI's BLAST XML format. The
DTDs and the web address to obtain them are:

  NCBI_BlastOutput.dtd	    
  NCBI_BlastOutput.mod.dtd

  http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/data_specs/dtd/

=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
the Bioperl mailing list.  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
of the bugs and their resolution. Bug reports can be submitted via the

=head2 new

 Title   : new
 Usage   : my $searchio = Bio::SearchIO->new(-format => 'blastxml',
					    -file   => 'filename',
					    -tempfile => 1);
 Function: Initializes the object - this is chained through new in SearchIO
 Returns : Bio::SearchIO::blastxml object
 Args    : One additional argument from the format and file/fh parameters.
           -tempfile    => boolean.  Defaults to false.  Write out XML data
                           to a temporary filehandle to send to PerlSAX parser.
