GenomicRangesList objects

Description

The GenomicRangesList virtual class is a general container for storing a list of GenomicRanges objects.

Most users are probably more interested in the GRangesList container, a GenomicRangesList derivative for storing a list of GRanges objects.

Details

The place of GenomicRangesList in the Vector class hierarchy:

                               Vector

   SimpleIRangesList   \             SimpleGRangesList   \
            CompressedIRangesList             CompressedGRangesList
  

Note that the Vector class hierarchy has many more classes. In particular Vector, List, IRangesList, and IntegerRangesList have other subclasses not shown here.
