Hi Duke,

There are two problems here. First, you have to explicitly use the 'type' argument, as that is passed in via the '...' argument.

Second, there is a bug in readAligned() when you use type="BAM" anyway. Instead of dispatching the correct function, it just returns the function definition. I have fixed the bug in both the devel and release versions. The fixed release version will appear in 36 hours or so. Look for version 1.6.2

Best,

Jim

Hi Duke,

Still the wrong list. You want Bioc-sig-sequencing.

Thanks :D. I thought ShortRead (and other NGS packages) is in BioConductor group too, but I forgot cc'ing to bioc-sig-sequencing group.

Hi all,

I am totally new to both R and BioConductor, so please be easy on me. I just updated my R package to 2.11, and installed new ShortRead package, but it seems that I am doing something wrong, and that there is some changes from ShortRead 1.5 to 1.6 (like the command format etc...). I tried to read a BAM file by creating a file as follow:

You don't want the ShortRead package. You want Rsamtools, and the scanBam() function. See ?scanBam for more info.

Thanks for pointing this out. I will try Rsamtools. But readAligned does have *BAM* type now. How can I use it?

Best,

Jim



library(ShortRead)
sp <- SolexaPath('/Volumes/Data/analysis/glamblia/STATs')
ap <- analysisPath(sp)
(aln0 <- readAligned(ap, "WB4day.bwa.def.bam", "BAM"))

but running the above just gave me the content of dirPath function. My package infos is:

Anybody has any idea?

Thanks,
