=head1 NAME

Bio::SearchIO::sim4 - parser for Sim4 alignments

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  # do not use this module directly, it is a driver for SearchIO
  use Bio::SearchIO;
  my $searchio = Bio::SearchIO->new(-file => 'results.sim4',
                                   -format => 'sim4');

  while ( my $result = $searchio->next_result ) {
      while ( my $hit = $result->next_hit ) {
	  while ( my $hsp = $hit->next_hsp ) {
              # ...
	  }
      }
  }

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This is a driver for the SearchIO system for parsing Sim4.
http://globin.cse.psu.edu/html/docs/sim4.html

Cannot parse LAV or 'exon file' formats (A=2 or A=5)

=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.

  bioperl-l@bioperl.org                  - General discussion
  http://bioperl.org/wiki/Mailing_lists  - About the mailing lists

=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
web:

=head2 _will_handle

 Title   : _will_handle
 Usage   : Private method. For internal use only.
              if( $self->_will_handle($type) ) { ... }
 Function: Provides an optimized way to check whether or not an element of a 
           given type is to be handled.
 Returns : Reference to EventHandler object if the element type is to be handled.
           undef if the element type is not to be handled.
 Args    : string containing type of element.

Optimizations:

  1. Using the cached pointer to the EventHandler to minimize repeated lookups.
  2. Caching the will_handle status for each type that is encountered
     so that it only need be checked by calling handler->will_handle($type) once.

This does not lead to a major savings by itself (only 5-10%).
In combination with other optimizations, or for large parse jobs, the
savings good be significant.

To test against the unoptimized version, remove the parentheses from
around the third term in the ternary " ? : " operator and add two
calls to $self-E<gt>_eventHandler().
