NAME

Bio::MAGETAB::Edge - MAGE-TAB edge class

SYNOPSIS

 use Bio::MAGETAB::Edge;

DESCRIPTION

This class is used to store information on edges in the experimental design graph described by a MAGE-TAB SDRF. Each Edge must link to both an input and an output Node. See the BaseClass class for superclass methods.

ATTRIBUTES

inputNode (required)

The Node object which feeds into this edge (data type: Bio::MAGETAB::Node).

outputNode (required)

The Node object leading away from this edge (data type: Bio::MAGETAB::Node)

protocolApplications (optional)

A list of ProtocolApplications associated with the edge (data type: Bio::MAGETAB::ProtocolApplication).

METHODS

Each attribute has accessor (get_*) and mutator (set_*) methods, and also predicate (has_*) and clearer (clear_*) methods where the attribute is optional. Where an attribute represents a one-to-many relationship the mutator accepts an arrayref and the accessor returns an array.
