Hi P.Terry,

Thanks to both Wolfgang and Steffen for explaining the database situation! In 
stead of chasing down each duplicate entries in different databases, I decided 
to output one entry for each exon ID, and output a warning message alerting the 
users the list of exon ids with duplicated entries. This way the users who are 
the expert of the queried database, can choose to resolve the duplicated 
entries with the list of ids.

The fix is in dev 1.3.11.

Best regards,

Julie

 Dear bioc-sig-sequencing,

I would like to annotate chip-seq peaks for the arabidopsis genome.  "TSS" and 
"Exon" are two of the arguments for the 'getAnnotation' function.  The "TSS" 
argument succeeded, but the "Exon" argument failed.

...

Checking attributes ... ok
Checking filters ... ok
> ExonArabAnno<-getAnnotation(arabdset, featureType="Exon")
