#' Method setdiff
#' 
#' @description Wrapper to GMQL DIFFERENCE operator
#' 
#' @description It produces one sample in the result for each sample of the 
#' left operand, by keeping the same metadata of the left input sample 
#' and only those regions (with their attributes and values) of the left input 
#' sample which do not intersect with any region in any right operand sample.
#' The optional \emph{joinBy} clause is used to extract a subset of pairs
#' from the Cartesian product of the two input datasets \emph{x} and \emph{y} 
#' on which to apply the DIFFERENCE operator:
#' only those samples that have the same value for each specified metadata 
#' attribute are considered when performing the difference.

#' @importFrom BiocGenerics setdiff
#' 
#' @param x GMQLDataset class object
#' @param y GMQLDataset class object
#' @param joinBy \code{\link{conds}} function to support methods with 
#' groupBy or JoinBy input parameter
#' 
#' @param is_exact single logical value: TRUE means that the region difference 
#' is executed only on regions in 'x' dataset with exactly the same 
#' coordinates of at least one region present in 'y' dataset; 
#' if is_exact = FALSE, the difference is executed on all regions in 
#' 'x' dataset that overlap (even just one base) with at least one region in 
#' 'y' dataset
#' 
#' 
#' @return GMQLDataset object. It contains the value to use as input 
#' for the subsequent GMQLDataset method

#' ## This statement initializes and runs the GMQL server for local execution

#' ## the path to the folders "DATASET" and "DATASET_GDM" in the subdirectory 
#' ## "example" of the package "RGMQL" and opens such folders as a GMQL 
#' ## datasets named "data1" and "data2", respectively, using CustomParser

#' ## This statement returns all the regions in the first dataset 
#' ## that do not overlap any region in the second dataset.

#' ## This statement extracts for every pair of samples s1 in data1 
#' ## and s2 in data2 having the same value of the metadata 
#' ## attribute 'cell' the regions that appear in s1 but 
#' ## do not overlap any region in s2.
