  • SPP -- ChIP-seq program installation??

    Hi all,

    I've been using Kharchenko et al's spp R package for calling peaks in ChIP-seq data for sometime. I've been really happy with it, and was trying to update to their latest version and am running into some real trouble

    I'm using a Mac OSX 10.6 machine, and I seem to be getting an error involving the use of a C "getline" function. I've gathered from researching the error I'm getting that this is because the function isn't supported by MacOS. Does anyone have ideas for a hack to fix this??? I've tried to do a few things myself but I'm in way over my head

    Below is the error I'm getting. Any help much appreciated!!!

    Code:
    $ sudo R CMD INSTALL spp_1.8.gz 
    Password:

    The parts of the bed2vector.C file that seemed relevant I've reproduced below (the whole file was too big to attach!):
    Code:
    int get_a_line(FILE *f,BZFILE *b,int bz2file,string& line) {
      line="";
      if(bz2file) {
        int bzerror=get_bzline(b,line);
        if(bzerror==BZ_OK) {
          return(1);
        } else {
          if(bzerror!=BZ_STREAM_END) {
    	cerr<<"encountered BZERROR="<<bzerror<<endl;
          }
          return(0);
        }
      } else {
        char *cline=NULL;
        size_t n;
        if(getline(&cline,&n,f) != -1) {
          if(cline) {
    	cline[strlen(cline)-1]='\0';
    	line+=cline;
    	free(cline);
          }
          return(1);
        } else {
          return(0);
        }
      }
    }

    I hope I'm not totally mistaken but it rather looks like C is mixed with C++ and this has nothing to do with OSX. the getline function is coded in C-sytle within a C++ source.

    you should ask the author to correct it in case this package is considered a maintained package.

            No problem -- you may want to check out the new version that just came out. I haven't had a chance to try installing it yet, but looks like it should have some good new features.

                    Thanks!
                    I renamed the file to bed2vector.cpp and placed it into spp/src/
                    I also needed to add the following include line to the file for the spp package to compile and install on my system:
                    #include <errno.h>

                      Just wanted to note, upgrading to SPP 1.11 version fixes this issue on the mac, so no patch needed. Just installed on OSX 10.6.8 with no issue

                        Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
                        by seqadmin


                        Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...

                        Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
                        by seqadmin


                        Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
