java.lang.Object

org.biojava.nbio.core.sequence.io.FastaWriter<S,C>

public class FastaWriter<S extends Sequence<?>,C extends Compound>
extends Object

The FastaWriter writes a collection of sequences to an outputStream. FastaWriterHelper should be used to write out sequences. Each sequence loaded from a fasta file retains the original Fasta header and that is used when writing to the stream. This behavior can be overwritten by implementing a custom FastaHeaderFormatInterface.
