NAME

Bio::Das::Request::Feature2Segments - Translate feature names into segments

SYNOPSIS

 my @segments             = $request->results;
 my $das_command          = $request->command;
 my $successful           = $request->is_success;
 my $error_msg            = $request->error;
 my ($username,$password) = $request->auth;

DESCRIPTION

This is a subclass of the Bio::Das::Request manpage specialized for the "features" command with specialized arguments that allow it to translate a feature name into a segment of the genome. It works by issuing the DAS features command using a type of NULL (which is an invalid feature type) and a feature_id argument. It is used to implement the Bio::Das->get_feature_by_name() method.

The results() method returns a series of the Bio::Das::Segment manpage objects. All other methods are as described in the Bio::Das::Request manpage. .
