Hi John,

you will find an introduction to the two position types for multiple sequences in the tutorial:

There is a link to the metafunction SAValue which can be overloaded to change the position type used by an index:

The ESA index Index<TText, IndexEsa<> > as well as most of the subclasses that whose a TSpec argument is Foo<> (and not Foo) can be further specialized in the form Foo<MoreSpecial<> > and Foo<MoreSpecial<EvenMoreSpecial<> > > and so on. That leaves room for further enhancements or specializations like a custom SAValue.

struct MyIndex;

template <typename TText>
struct SAValue<Index<TText, IndexEsa<MyIndex> > >
{
typedef Pair<unsigned, unsigned, BitCompressed<19,13> > Type;
};

Would it have helped if that was a part of the tutorial? Or where would you search for that example?
I tend to look in the reference section of the documentation so I was here:
http://www.seqan.de/dddoc/html_devel/SPEC_Index_Esa.html

I could see the definition
Index<TText, IndexEsa<> >

but from this page I had no idea I could overload the SAValue, or indeed if I could whether it would be an argument to the IndexEsa template or to the Index template. Are you saying I need to specialise the metafunction SAValue to overload it for my index? Presumably this must be done in the seqan namespace? Is the SAValue for the index not a template argument to Index?

Thanks,
John.

Regards,
David

Hi John,

posGlobalize needs in either case constant time. posLocalize takes
constant time only for pairs. Otherwise (for global positions =
integers) it takes O(m log m) where m is the number of sequences.
And yes, global positions help to save memory. But you can configure
the type used in the position tables by overloading SAValue for your
index. With Packed Pairs you specify the number of bits used for
seqno and seqofs.
That sounds interesting. I'm not quite sure where in the documentation
I should look to see what how I should overload SAValue. Is there
documentation on this?

I think I worked it out by trial and error:

Index< string_set_t, IndexEsa< Pair< unsigned int, unsigned int,
BitCompressed< 17, 13 > > > >

seems to be doing the job. I would like to know if it is just that I
don't understand how the docs work or whether it is missing from the
docs. Quite often I can't find things in the docs.
