NAME

Bio::MAGETAB::Edge - MAGE-TAB edge class

SYNOPSIS

 use Bio::MAGETAB::Edge;

DESCRIPTION

This class is used to store information on edges in the experimental design graph described by a MAGE-TAB SDRF. Each Edge must link to both an input and an output Node. See the BaseClass class for superclass methods.

ATTRIBUTES

inputNode (required): The Node object which feeds into this edge (data type: Bio::MAGETAB::Node).
outputNode (required): The Node object leading away from this edge (data type: Bio::MAGETAB::Node)
protocolApplications (optional): A list of ProtocolApplications associated with the edge (data type: Bio::MAGETAB::ProtocolApplication).

METHODS

Each attribute has accessor (get_*) and mutator (set_*) methods, and also predicate (has_*) and clearer (clear_*) methods where the attribute is optional. Where an attribute represents a one-to-many relationship the mutator accepts an arrayref and the accessor returns an array.
