Hi - BioJava2 is more of a concept than an actual usable API. I'm not sure if the development of this project is even active right now.
BioJava 1.5 will be the next generation of biojava. It doesn't use features of JDK1.5 like generics, foreach, and unboxing but later versions will. However, this doesn't mean you can't use them with the API. For example there is no reason why you cannot make a List<Sequence> and iterate over it with a foreach statement. It's just that BioJava 1.5 doesn't do that internally yet. - Mark On 3/17/07, Eric Gibert <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Dear all, > > > > I am using BioJava 1.4 and I think to upgrade to 1.5.
