virtual DataSetAbstractProduct* DataSetAbstractFactory::createDataSetAbstractProduct (  const string &  ,
const string &  ,
const string &  ,
const std::string & 
)  [pure virtual]
 

Precond:
Takes as input a string specifing a "flat" file where the input data is stored

Parameters:
const string& (1) => the file name to read data from
const string& (2) => a unique string identifier to associate with the evidence source
const string& (3) => type of evidence, "geneprediction", "spliceprediction", "homology" some factorys can read formats that can produce different types of evidence, such as "GFF" format. e.g. homology, geneprediction etc.
