Bio::DB::SeqFeature::NormalizedFeatureI(3) Interface for normalized features

SYNOPSIS

none

DESCRIPTION

This is an extremely simple interface that contains a single method, subfeatures_are_normalized(). This method returns a true value.

Bio::DB::SeqFeature::Store feature classes will inherit this interface to flag that they are able to store subfeatures in a normalized way such that the subfeature is actually contained in the Bio::DB::SeqFeature::Store database and the parent feature contains only the subfeatures primary ID.

BUGS

None, but the whole class design might be flawed.
