#define SEQAN_BLAST_BLAST_TABULAR_READ_H_

/* IMPLEMENTATION NOTES

BLAST TABULAR example:

The format of a blast tabular output file is less simple than it looks, here's
the general form

COMMENTLINES
 MATCH
 MATCH
 MATCH
 MATCH
COMMENTLINES
 MATCH
COMMENTLINES
COMMENTLINES
...

=> COMMENTLINES for each sequence, 0-n Matchs for each sequence
=> Each record is one-line, each COMMENTLINES is multiline

COMMENTLINES usually consists of:

# Program Tag [e.g BLASTX 2.2.27+ ]
# Query Id [ID of the query *sequence*]
# Database Id [note that this is not the name of the sequence in the db, but of
  the database itself, e.g. "nr" -> usually the same for each file]
# Fields: [Headers of columns]
# n "hits found"

The first three lines are always written.
The Fields line is always writen by NCBI Blast, but only when hits > 0 by NCBI Blast+.
The "number of hits"-line is always printed by NCBI Blast+, and never by NCBI Blast.

Possibly other lines can be written as comments.

Because 0 matches are allowed, multiple COMMENTLINES can succeed each other, the
criterium for separation employed by this implementation is that an NCBI Blast
COMMENTLINES always ends after the "Fields" line and NCBI Blast+ COMMENTLINES end after
the "number of hits"-line.

/*!
 * @fn BlastTabularFileIn#readRecord
 * @brief Read a record from a file in BlastTabular format.
 * @headerfile seqan/blast.h
 * @signature void readRecord(blastRecord, blastTabularIn);
 *
 * @param[out]    blastRecord  A @link BlastRecord @endlink to hold all information related to one query sequence.
 * @param[in,out] blastTabularIn A @link BlastTabularFileIn @endlink formattedFile.
 *
 * @section Remarks
 *
 * This function will read an entire record from a blast tabular file, i.e. it will read the comment lines
 * (if the format is @link BlastTabularSpec::COMMENTS @endlink) and 0-n @link BlastMatch @endlinkes belonging
 * to one query.
 *
 * Please note that if there are no comment lines in the file the boundary
 * between records is inferred from the indentity of the first field, i.e.
 * non-standard field configurations must also have Q_SEQ_ID as their first @link BlastMatchField @endlink.
 *
 * @subsection Comment lines
 *
 * The @link BlastRecord::qId @endlink member of the record is read from the comment lines and the
 * @link BlastRecord::matches @endlink are resized to the expected number of matches succeeding the comments.
 *
 * This function also sets many properties of blastTabularIn's @link BlastIOContext @endlink, including these members:
 * <li> @link BlastIOContext::versionString @endlink: version string of the program.</li>
 * <li> @link BlastIOContext::dbName @endlink: name of the database.</li>
 * <li> @link BlastIOContext::fields @endlink: descriptors for the columns.</li>
 * <li> @link BlastIOContext::fieldsAsStrings @endlink: labels of the columns
 * as they appear in the file.</li>
 * <li> @link BlastIOContext::conformancyErrors @endlink: if this StringSet is not empty, then there are issues in the
 * comments.</li>
 * <li> @link BlastIOContext::otherLines @endlink: any lines that cannot be interpreted; these always also imply
 * conformancyErrors.</li>
 * <li>@link BlastIOContext::legacyFormat @endlink: whether the record (and likely the entire file) is in
 * legacyFormat.</li>
 *
 * It also sets the blast program run-time parameter of the context depending on the information found in the comments. If
 * the compile time parameter was set on the context and they are different this will result in a critical error.
 *
 * Please note that for @link BlastIOContext::legacyFormat @endlink the @link BlastIOContext::fields @endlink member
 * is always ignored, however @link BlastIOContext::fieldsAsStrings @endlink is still read from the comments, in case
 * you want to process it.
 *
 * In case you do not wish the @link BlastIOContext::fields @endlink to be read from the comments, you can set
 * context.@link BlastIOContext::ignoreFieldsInComments @endlink to true. This will be prevent it from being read and will
 * allow you to specify it manually which might be relevant for reading the match lines.
 *
 * If the format is @link BlastTabularSpec::NO_COMMENTS @endlink none of the above happens and
 * @link BlastRecord::qId @endlink is derived from the first match.
 *
 * @subsection Matches
 *
 * A match line contains 1 - n columns or fields, 12 by default.
 * The @link BlastIOContext::fields @endlink member of the context is considered when reading these fields. It is
 * usually extracted from the comment lines but can also be set by yourself if there are no comments or if you want
 * to overwrite the comments' information (see above).
 * You may specify less
 * fields than are actually present, in this case the additional fields will be
 * discarded. The parameter is ignored if @link BlastIOContext::legacyFormat @endlink is set.
 *
 * To differentiate between members of a @link BlastMatch @endlink that were read from the file and those that have
 * not been set (e.g. both could be 0), the latter are initialized to their respective max-values.
 *
 * Please note that the only transformations made to the data are the following:
 *
 *  <li> computation of the number of identities (from the percentage) [default]</li>
 *  <li> computation of the number of positives (from the percentage) [if given]</li>
 *  <li> number of gaps computed from other values [default]</li>
 *
 * In contrast to @link BlastTabularFileOut#writeRecord @endlink no other transformations
 * are made, e.g. the positions are still one-indexed and
 * flipped for reverse strand matches. This is due to the required fields for
 * retransformation (sequence lengths, frames) not being available in the
 * default columns.
 *
 * @throw IOError On low-level I/O errors.
 * @throw ParseError On high-level file format errors.
