BlastView_clustal: Performs a multiple alignment using a remote ClustalW server.


A subcomponent of the BlastView_align composite bean, BlastView_clustal implements the second alignment method provided by BlastView. This is a multiple alignment generated by a remotely-accessed ClustalW server. The input to the component consists of a list of sequences--passed in a SequenceList event--and a TimeStamp used to identify the BLAST file from which the sequences were drawn. A QuerySeqAssembler reconstructs the original BLAST query sequence and adds it to the list of sequences to be aligned. ClustalAlign presents the user with the opportunity to set the parameters used by ClustalW, before shipping the query to a remote CGI-based server. The results are displayed in a MultiAlignWidgetFrame, which the external application can hide or show with a toggleVisibility message.
