Re: QBlast in BioJava3

Hello Sylvain, et al.,

I think I may have found another similar issue.

Here's my program:

package com.multiBLAST.model;

import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.util.Set;

import org.biojava3.ws.alignment.qblast.NCBIQBlastAlignmentProperties;
import org.biojava3.ws.alignment.qblast.NCBIQBlastOutputFormat;
import org.biojava3.ws.alignment.qblast.NCBIQBlastOutputProperties;
import org.biojava3.ws.alignment.qblast.NCBIQBlastService;

public class BLASTExample {

    public static void main(String [] args) {

        NCBIQBlastService blaster;
        NCBIQBlastOutputProperties outputProperties;
        InputStream is;
        String request = "";
        final String TESTSEQUENCE = "MAQGTLIRVTPEQPTHAVCV";
        String rid = new String();

        try {
            blaster = new NCBIQBlastService();
            NCBIQBlastAlignmentProperties alignmentProperties = new
NCBIQBlastAlignmentProperties();
            alignmentProperties.setBlastProgram("blastp");
            alignmentProperties.setBlastDatabase("nr");

            request = blaster.sendAlignmentRequest(TESTSEQUENCE,
alignmentProperties);

            System.out.println("Trying to get BLAST results for RID " +
rid);

            boolean wasBlasted = false;

            while (!wasBlasted) {
                wasBlasted = blaster.isReady(rid,
System.currentTimeMillis());
            }

            outputProperties = new NCBIQBlastOutputProperties();
            outputProperties.setOutputFormat(NCBIQBlastOutputFormat.TEXT);

outputProperties.setAlignmentOutputFormat(NCBIQBlastOutputFormat.PAIRWISE);
            outputProperties.setDescriptionNumber(10);
            outputProperties.setAlignmentNumber(10);

            //to show that output options were followed

            Set<String> test = outputProperties.getOutputOptions();

            for(String str : test) {
                System.out.println(str);
            }

            is = blaster.getAlignmentResults(request, outputProperties);

            BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new
InputStreamReader(is));

            String line = null;

            while ((line = br.readLine()) != null)    {
                System.out.println(line);
            }

        } catch (Exception ex) {
            ex.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}

When I run it, it throws an exception:
java.lang.Exception: The key named PROGRAM is not set in this
RemoteQBlastOutputProperties object
    at
org.biojava3.ws.alignment.qblast.NCBIQBlastAlignmentProperties.getAlignmentOption(NCBIQBlastAlignmentProperties.java:173)
    at
org.biojava3.ws.alignment.qblast.NCBIQBlastService.sendActualAlignementRequest(NCBIQBlastService.java:132)
    at
org.biojava3.ws.alignment.qblast.NCBIQBlastService.sendAlignmentRequest(NCBIQBlastService.java:210)
    at com.multiBLAST.model.BLASTExample.main(BLASTExample.java:30)

Because RemoteQBlastOutputProperties is the terminology used in the pre-BJ3
APIs, I'm guessing this is another conversion problem? Or am I missing
something else?

Many thanks for all your help.

Best,
Matthew
