I have just downloaded the Biojava package and made a BLAST output file parser 
according to the tutorial on 
http://biojava.org/tutorials/blastlikeParsingCookBook/index.html

That means I have written my own XML content handler and put the parsing logic into 
startElement, using the BlastLikeDataSetCollection DTD file as a guide to the tag 
names.

This works fine, but I believe I should be able to use objects in the 
org.biojava.bio.search package to avoid writing my own content handler.  Is this true? 
If so, could someone please point me to some example code (or other help) that starts 
with a BLAST output file, and ends with hit objects?  Unfortunately I'm having trouble 
choosing the correct classes to use with only the javadocs as a guide.  I found a mail 
list posting from August that deals with this( 
http://biojava.org/pipermail/biojava-l/2001-August/001480.html ), but it uses a 
package org.biojava.bio.program.ssbind 
that I don't have and can't find.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks very much,
Susan
