Class GFFWriter

java.lang.Object
  org.biojava.bio.program.gff.GFFWriter

All Implemented Interfaces:

GFFDocumentHandler

public class GFFWriter
extends Object
implements GFFDocumentHandler

Listens to a stream of GFF events and writes the lines to a PrintWriter.

This will ignore all exceptions. Perhaps the error-handling needs to move into an error handling interface?
