=head1 NAME
Bio::Location::Split - Implementation of a Location on a Sequence
which has multiple locations (start/end points)
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use Bio::Location::Split;
my $splitlocation = Bio::Location::Split->new();
$splitlocation->add_sub_Location(Bio::Location::Simple->new(-start=>1,
-end=>30,
-strand=>1));
$splitlocation->add_sub_Location(Bio::Location::Simple->new(-start=>50,
-end=>61,
-strand=>1));
my @sublocs = $splitlocation->sub_Location();
my $count = 1;
# print the start/end points of the sub locations
foreach my $location ( sort { $a->start <=> $b->start }
@sublocs ) {
printf "sub feature %d [%d..%d]\n",
$count, $location->start,$location->end, "\n";
$count++;
}
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This implementation handles locations which span more than one
start/end location, or and/or lie on different sequences, and can
work with split locations that depend on the specific order of the
sublocations ('join') or don't have a specific order but represent
a feature spanning noncontiguous sublocations ('order', 'bond').
Note that the order in which sublocations are added may be very important,
depending on the specific split location type. For instance, a 'join'
must have the sublocations added in the order that one expects to
join the sublocations, whereas all other types are sorted based on the
sequence location.
=head1 FEEDBACK
User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other
Bioperl modules. Send your comments and suggestions preferably to one
of the Bioperl mailing lists. Your participation is much appreciated.

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

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 each_Location
Title : each_Location
Usage : @locations = $locObject->each_Location($order);
Function: Conserved function call across Location:: modules - will
return an array containing the component Location(s) in
that object, regardless if the calling object is itself a
single location or one containing sublocations.
Returns : an array of Bio::LocationI implementing objects
Args : Optional sort order to be passed to sub_Location()

=head2 sub_Location
Title : sub_Location
Usage : @sublocs = $splitloc->sub_Location();
Function: Returns the array of sublocations making up this compound (split)
location. Those sublocations referring to the same sequence as
the root split location will be sorted by start position (forward
sort) or end position (reverse sort) and come first (before
those on other sequences).
The sort order can be optionally specified or suppressed by the
value of the first argument. The default is no sort.
Returns : an array of Bio::LocationI implementing objects
Args : Optionally 1, 0, or -1 for specifying a forward, no, or reverse
sort order

=head2 splittype
Title : splittype
Usage : $splittype = $location->splittype();
Function: get/set the split splittype
Returns : the splittype of split feature (join, order)

=head2 is_single_sequence
Title : is_single_sequence
Usage : if($splitloc->is_single_sequence()) {
print "Location object $splitloc is split ".
"but only across a single sequence\n";
}
Function: Determine whether this location is split across a single or
multiple sequences.
This implementation ignores (sub-)locations that do not define
seq_id(). The same holds true for the root location.
Returns : TRUE if all sublocations lie on the same sequence as the root
location (feature), and FALSE otherwise.

=head2 guide_strand
Title : guide_strand
Usage : $str = $loc->guide_strand();
Function: Get/Set the guide strand. Of use only if the split type is
a 'join' (this helps determine the order of sublocation
retrieval)
Returns : value of guide strand (1, -1, or undef)
Args : new value (-1 or 1, optional)

=head1 LocationI methods
=head2 strand
Title : strand
Usage : $obj->strand($newval)
Function: For SplitLocations, setting the strand of the container
(this object) is a short-cut for setting the strand of all
sublocations.
In get-mode, checks if no sub-location is remote, and if
all have the same strand. If so, it returns that shared
strand value. Otherwise it returns undef.
Example :
Returns : on get, value of strand if identical between sublocations
(-1, 1, or undef)
Args : new value (-1 or 1, optional)
=cut
sub strand{
my ($self,$value) = @_;

# we give up upon any location that's remote or doesn't have
# the strand specified, or has a differing one set than
# previously seen.
# calling strand() is potentially expensive if the subloc is also
# a split location, so we cache it
$lstrand = $loc->strand();

=head2 coordinate_policy
Title : coordinate_policy
Usage : $policy = $location->coordinate_policy();
$location->coordinate_policy($mypolicy); # set may not be possible
Function: Get the coordinate computing policy employed by this object.
See Bio::Location::CoordinatePolicyI for documentation about
the policy object and its use.
The interface *does not* require implementing classes to accept
setting of a different policy. The implementation provided here
does, however, allow to do so.
Implementors of this interface are expected to initialize every
new instance with a CoordinatePolicyI object. The implementation
provided here will return a default policy object if none has
been set yet. To change this default policy object call this
method as a class method with an appropriate argument. Note that
in this case only subsequently created Location objects will be
affected.
Returns : A Bio::Location::CoordinatePolicyI implementing object.
Args : On set, a Bio::Location::CoordinatePolicyI implementing object.
