Seems like the required changes hasn't yet been pushed from svn to the builds.
I do have one possible caveat: it is not clear to me how this would
work when the GRanges is not sorted by chromosome as I get
> gr1
GRanges with 3 ranges and 0 elementMetadata values
seqnames ranges strand |
<Rle> <IRanges> <Rle> |
[1] chr1 [1, 3] * |
[2] chr2 [2, 4] * |
[3] chr1 [6, 8] * |
seqlengths
chr1 chr2
NA NA
> as(gr1, "RangesList")
CompressedIRangesList of length 2
$chr1
IRanges of length 2
start end width
[1] 1 3 3
[2] 6 8 3
$chr2
IRanges of length 1
start end width
[1] 2 4 3
When I go back to the original GRanges I will need to interweave the
results from the RangesList.
Of course, being able to do IntervalTrees directly on GRanges will
also be very convenient.
