Hello,

I've updated my ShortRead and IRanges packages recently and the qa function 
doesn't

I'm guessing that you mean you updated from ShortRead 1.6.0. to 1.6.2. There don't look like there are code changes that would cause problems with this...

work for me anymore. It spends a couple of minutes processing, then fails with 
an error :

str(path)
chr "C:/Users/dario/Documents/Garvan/rawData/seq/Ramaciotti/25-03-2010/s_1_1"

dir(path)

"mapping.log"                     "s_1_sequence.fastq.gz"           "s_1_sequence.uniq.map.gz"

QAfastq<- qa(path, "fastq.gz", "fastq")
Error in stop(msg, " ", errors, domain = NA) :
   no function to return from, jumping to top level
Error in slot(object, ".srlist") :
   cannot get a slot (".srlist") from an object of type "NULL"
In addition: Warning message:

   elements: 1
   UnspecifiedError: qa(readFastq(dirPath, pattern, ...), pattern, verbose = 
verbose)
  error in evaluating the argument 'dirPath' in selecting a method for function 
'qa'

does

   fl = list.files(path, "fastq.gz", full=TRUE)

return something sensible (just the path to s_1_seqeunce.fastq.gz)?

Does

  .Call(ShortRead:::.read_solexa_fastq, fl, TRUE)

return a list containing the sequences, ids, and qualities? If not, then there are problems parsing the fastq file. The parser expects the reads / qualities to occupy a single line each, and the qualities to be encoded. Is that the case for these reads? Also, how many and what length are the reads supposed to be?

Could this be a bug in the function ?
