-- VCFWriter / codec now passes the same rigorous UnitTest as the BCF2 writer / codec. As part of this we now can only test doubles for equivalence in VCFs to 1e-2 (not exactly impressive)
-- This version of BCF should actually work properly for most files, assuming headers are properly defined.
-- Lots of bug fixes to BCF2 codec
-- Genotype getPhredScaledQual is now an int, returning -1 if there's no QUAL. NOTE THIS SEMANTICS change
-- Equals() method for GenotypeLikelihoods, using PLs.
-- VCFCodec now longer adds empty bindings to missing input field values. NOTE THIS CHANGE
-- VCs can be marked as fully decoded, so that when fullyDecode() is called it returns itself, instead of doing the decoding work. The BCF2 codec now makes VCs marked as fully decoded
-- stringToBytes returns empty list for null or "" string in BCF2Encoder
-- Proper handling of genotype ordering in BCF2 reader / writer
-- Removed the crazy slow noDups and sameSamples tests that were slowing down unit and integration tests totally unnecessarily
-- Many failing MD5s now due to double -> int change in GQ, will update later
-- Added a new parameter to control the maximum number of pairwise differences to generate, which previously could expand to a very large number when there were lots of differences among genotypes, resulting in a n^2 algorithm running with n > 1,000,000
haplotypes were being clipped to the reference window when their unclipped ends went beyond the reference window. The unclipped ends include the hard clipped bases, therefore, if the reference window ended inside the hard clipped bases of a read, the boundaries would be wrong (and the read clipper was throwing an exception).
* updated code to use SoftEnd/SoftStart instead of UnclippedEnd/UnclippedStart where appropriate.
* removed unnecessary code to remove hard clips after processing.
* reorganized the logic to use the assigned read boundaries throughout the code (allowing it to be final).
-- Cut down the size of a few large files in public/testdata that were only used in part
-- Refactor vcf Filename => shadow BCF filename to BCF2Utils. Fix bug in WalkerTest due to the way this was handled previously
-- Fully working version
-- Use -generateShadowBCF to write out foo.bcf as well as foo.vcf anywhere you use -o foo.vcf
-- Moved MedianUnitTest to its proper home in Utils
-- Added reportng to ivy and testng, so build/report/X/html/ is a nicely formatted output for Unit and Integration tests. From this website it's easy to see md5 diffs, etc. This is a vastly better way to manage unit and integration test output
--handle entirely missing GT in a sample in decodeGenotypeAlleles
--Create MAX_ALLELES_IN_GENOTYPES constant in BCF2Utils, and extracted its use inline from the code
-- Generalized genotype writing code to handle ploidy != 2 and variable ploidy among samples
-- Remove special case inline treatment of case where all samples have no GT field values, and moved this into calcVCFGenotypeKeys
-- Removed restriction on getPloidy requiring ploidy > 1. It's logically find to return 0 for a no called sample
-- getMaxPloidy() in VC that does what it says
-- Support for padding / depadding of generic genotype fields
-- fixed final bugs with PL encoding / decoding
-- Ready for testing by other members of the group
-- Current performance numbers aren't so great, but they will improve in the next phase of BCF2 optimizations
-- Fixed a nasty bug in the filter field
-- Not that some (many?) GATK tools won't work with BCF because they internally assume values are Strings not their true types
Read 1500 genotypes file in VCF -> VCF : 11 seconds
Read 1500 genotypes file in VCF -> BCF : 9.5 seconds
VariantEval 1500 genotypes file in VCF : 3 seconds
VariantEval 1500 genotypes file in BCF : 3 seconds
-- Trivial import changes in some walkers
-- SelectVariants has a new hidden mode to fully decode a VCF file
-- DepthPerAlleleBySample (AD) changed to have not UNBOUNDED by A type, which is actually the right type
-- GenotypeLikelihoods now implements List<Double> for convenience. The PL duality here is going to be removed in a subsequent commit
-- BugFixes in BCF2Writer. Proper handling of padding. Bugfix for nFields for a field
-- padAllele function in VariantContextUtils
-- Much better tests for VariantContextTestProvider, including loading parts of dbSNP 135 and the Phase II 1000G call set with genotypes to test encoding / decoding of fields.
-- List<String> is converted inside of the codec to a collapsed string, and exploded in the decoder.
-- Unified the type conversion code in BCFWriter to simply the mapping from VCF type => BCF type and special value recoding
-- Code cleanup and renaming
-- Convenience routine for creating alleles from strings of bases
-- Convenience constructor for VCFFilterHeader line whose description is the same as name
-- VariantContextTestProvider creates all sorts of types of VariantContexts for testing purposes. Can be reused throughtout code for BCF, VCF, etc.
-- Created basic BCF2WriterCodec tests that consumes VariantContextTestProvider contexts, writes them to disk with BCF2 writer, and checks that they come back equals to the original VariantContexts. Actually worked for some complex tests in the first go
-- Added VCFHeader() constructor that makes an empty header, and updated VariantRecalibrator to use it
-- Update build.xml to build vcf.jar with updated paths and bcf2 support.
-- Moved VCF and BCF writers to variantcontext.writers
-- Updated vcf.jar build path
-- Refactored VCFWriter and other code. Now the best (and soon to be only) way to create these files is through a factory method called VariantContextWriterFactory. Renamed the general VCFWriter interface to VariantContextWriter which is implemented by VCFWriter and BCF2Writer.
-- Refactored VCF writers into vcf.writers package
-- Moved BCF2Writer to bcf2.writer
-- Updates to all of the walkers using VCFWriter to reflect new packages
-- A large number of files had their headers cleaned up because of this as well
-- Restructured code to separate the MISSING value in java (currently everywhere a null) from the byte representation on disk (an int).
-- Now handles correctly MISSING qual fields
-- Refactored setting of contigs from VCFWriterStub to VCFUtils. Necessary for proper BCF working
-- Added VCFContigHeaderLine that manages the order for sorting, so we now emit contigs in the proper order.
-- Cleaned up VCFHeader operations
-- BCF now uses the right header files correctly when encoding / decoding contigs
-- Clean up unused tools
-- Refactored header parsing routines to make them more accessible
-- More minor header changes from Intellij
