AtomCache searches for files in a standard naming format
currently, you can imitate that standard format, by renaming your local files, and then they will be loaded just like normally.

Subject: Re: [Biojava-l] atomcache with a file

The AtomCache is built around naming conventions and supports more
than just loading PDB files. It can also load the representation of a
SCOP domain as a Structure object (and some other things). If you
think it is useful we can add something like a pre-fix which would
tell the cache to load local files with a nonstandard name. Something
like : private:a1 could be the name to describe your own file.

Thanks... but I have a directory of pdb files

/Users/jay/pdb/a1.pdb

Is it possible for atom cache to initially load the file from this directory
?

I don't care where it caches the data ... Its just that my pdb file is not
at RCSB, and it appears that atomcache
is set up to go to RCSB by default to find a pdb file.

Hi Jay,

you can use it like this:

       // by default PDB files will be stored in a temporary
directory
       // there are two ways of configuring a directory, that can
get
re-used multiple times:
       // A) set the environment variable PDB_DIR
       // B) call cache.setPath(path)
       AtomCache cache = new AtomCache();

       try {
           // alternative: try d4hhba_ 4hhb.A 4hhb.A:1-100
           Structure s = cache.getStructure("4hhb");
           System.out.println(s);
       } catch (Exception e) {

           e.printStackTrace();

       }

Hope that helps,

Andreas
