APP

Modes: a q s

APP is the same as EXTERNAL.

For any given method: declaration, EMBOSS will use that method for those access modes supported by the method.

If you wish to specify which access mode (all, query or single) should be handled by which database retrieval method then the methodsingle:, methodquery: and methodall: declarations should be used instead of method:


DB mydb [
methodsingle: app
format: fasta
app: "customapp myproteindb"
methodall: direct
dir: $emboss_db_dir/myproteindb
file: myproteindb.dat
type: P
comment: "single and all access for myproteindb"
]
