Package: libbiojava-java (1:1.9.7+dfsg-2)

Java API to biological data and applications (default version)

BioJava is an open-source project dedicated to providing a Java framework for processing biological data. It includes objects for manipulating sequences, file parsers, DAS client and server support, access to BioSQL and Ensembl databases, and powerful analysis and statistical routines including a dynamic programming toolkit.

BioJava is provided by a vibrant community which meets annually at the Bioinformatics Open Source Conference (BOSC) that traditionally accompanies the Intelligent Systems in Molecular Biology (ISMB) meeting. Much like BioPerl, the employment of this library is valuable for everybody active in the field because of the many tricks of the trade one learns just by communicating on the mailing list.

This is a dependency package which should enable smooth upgrades to new versions.
