27 * An interface describing the result of a search or other operation which
28 * highlights matched regions of an alignment
30 public interface SearchResultsI
34 * Adds one region to the results
44 SearchResultMatchI addResult(SequenceI seq, int start, int end);
47 * adds all match results in the argument to this set
51 void addSearchResults(SearchResultsI toAdd);
54 * Answers true if the search results include the given sequence (or its
55 * dataset sequence), else false
60 boolean involvesSequence(SequenceI sequence);
63 * Returns an array of [from, to, from, to..] matched columns (base 0) between
64 * the given start and end columns of the given sequence. Returns null if no
65 * matches overlap the specified region.
67 * Implementations should provide an optimised method to return locations to
68 * highlight on a visible portion of an alignment.
72 * first column of range (base 0, inclusive)
74 * last column of range base 0, inclusive)
77 int[] getResults(SequenceI sequence, int start, int end);
80 * Returns the number of matches found
87 * Returns true if no search result matches are held.
94 * Returns the list of matches.
