=head1 NAME
FAST::Bio::Annotation::SimpleValue - A simple scalar
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use FAST::Bio::Annotation::SimpleValue;
use FAST::Bio::Annotation::Collection;
my $col = FAST::Bio::Annotation::Collection->new();
my $sv = FAST::Bio::Annotation::SimpleValue->new(-value => 'someval');
$col->add_Annotation('tagname', $sv);
=head1 DESCRIPTION
Scalar value annotation object
=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 one
of the Bioperl mailing lists. 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
the bugs and their resolution. Bug reports can be submitted via

The rest of the documentation details each of the object methods. Internal methods are usually preceded with a _

=head2 new
Title : new
Usage : my $sv = FAST::Bio::Annotation::SimpleValue->new();
Function: Instantiate a new SimpleValue object
Returns : FAST::Bio::Annotation::SimpleValue object
Args : -value => $value to initialize the object data field [optional]
-tagname => $tag to initialize the tagname [optional]
-tag_term => ontology term representation of the tag [optional]

=head1 AnnotationI implementing functions
=cut
=head2 as_text
Title : as_text
Usage : my $text = $obj->as_text
Function: return the string "Value: $v" where $v is the value
Returns : string
Args : none
=cut
sub
as_text{
my
(
$self
) =
@_
;
return
"Value: "
.
$self
->value;
}
=head2 display_text
Title : display_text
Usage : my $str = $ann->display_text();
Function: returns a string. Unlike as_text(), this method returns a string
formatted as would be expected for te specific implementation.
One can pass a callback as an argument which allows custom text
generation; the callback is passed the current instance and any text
returned
Example :
Returns : a string
Args : [optional] callback
=cut
{
my
$DEFAULT_CB
=
sub
{
$_
[0]->value};
sub
display_text {
my
(
$self
,
$cb
) =
@_
;
$cb
||=
$DEFAULT_CB
;
$self
->throw(
"Callback must be a code reference"
)
if
ref
$cb
ne
'CODE'
;
return
$cb
->(
$self
);
}
}
=head2 hash_tree
Title : hash_tree
Usage : my $hashtree = $value->hash_tree
Function: For supporting the AnnotationI interface just returns the value
as a hashref with the key 'value' pointing to the value
Returns : hashrf
Args : none
=cut
sub
hash_tree{
my
$self
=
shift
;
my
$h
= {};
$h
->{
'value'
} =
$self
->value;
return
$h
;
}
=head2 tagname
Title : tagname
Usage : $obj->tagname($newval)
Function: Get/set the tagname for this annotation value.
Setting this is optional. If set, it obviates the need to
provide a tag to AnnotationCollection when adding this
object.
Example :
Returns : value of tagname (a scalar)
Args : new value (a scalar, optional)
=cut
sub
tagname{
my
$self
=
shift
;
# check for presence of an ontology term
if
(
$self
->{
'_tag_term'
}) {
# keep a copy in case the term is removed later
$self
->{
'tagname'
} =
$_
[0]
if
@_
;
# delegate to the ontology term object
return
$self
->tag_term->name(
@_
);
}
return
$self
->{
'tagname'
} =
shift
if
@_
;
return
$self
->{
'tagname'
};
}
=head1 Specific accessors for SimpleValue
=cut
=head2 value
Title : value
Usage : $obj->value($newval)
Function: Get/Set the value for simplevalue
Returns : value of value
Args : newvalue (optional)
=cut
sub
value{
my
(
$self
,
$value
) =
@_
;
if
(
defined
$value
) {
$self
->{
'value'
} =
$value
;
}
return
$self
->{
'value'
};
}
=head2 tag_term
Title : tag_term
Usage : $obj->tag_term($newval)
Function: Get/set the L<FAST::Bio::Ontology::TermI> object representing
the tag name.
This is so you can specifically relate the tag of this
annotation to an entry in an ontology. You may want to do
this to associate an identifier with the tag, or a
particular category, such that you can better match the tag
against a controlled vocabulary.
This accessor will return undef if it has never been set
before in order to allow this annotation to stay
light-weight if an ontology term representation of the tag
is not needed. Once it is set to a valid value, tagname()
will actually delegate to the name() of this term.
Example :
Returns : a L<FAST::Bio::Ontology::TermI> compliant object, or undef
Args : on set, new value (a L<FAST::Bio::Ontology::TermI> compliant
object or undef, optional)
=cut
sub
tag_term{
my
$self
=
shift
;
return
$self
->{
'_tag_term'
} =
shift
if
@_
;
return
$self
->{
'_tag_term'
};
}
