The error message is, in this case, rather helpful. Just change
'standard' to 'parameter'. The rationale for this is that the first
input file in an ACD file should usually be a 'parameter' to enable
people to just specify the filename (without qualifier switch) on the
command line. acdvalid will just give warnings for subsequent files that
aren't marked as parameters.
The warnings are just that the first infile is usually has the
name 'infile' for consistency with other EMBOSS applications.
You can choose to ignore warnings for local applications.
So,
infile: infile [
parameter: "Y"
knowntype: "sequence data"
prompt: "Name of Sequence (in arbitrary format)"
information: "Protein Sequence or Accession number input"
]
is what acdvalid would prefer.

Hi Alan,
Thanks,
nevertheless, I cannot use 'parameter: "Y"' because my application
requires both parameter-name and parameter-value:
-in=your_file
So, I will try to use the ACD file with the error.
Hello,
I try to build my own ACD file for one of our application but acdvalid
returns a strange error message:
Warning: File tmpred.acd line 26: Information string for 'in' not
standard 'Sequence file'
Error: File tmpred.acd line 26: First input file 'in' is not a parameter
Warning: File tmpred.acd line 26: Infile qualifier 'in' is not 'infile'
or '*file'(should be 'infile')
Here is the problematic section:
section: input [
information: "Input section"
type: "page"
]
infile: in [
standard: "Y"
knowntype: "sequence data"
prompt: "Name of Sequence (in arbitrary format)"
information: "Protein Sequence or Accession number input"
]
...
Do you know how to resolve this ?
(I use EMBOSS 5.0.0)
Thanks
