Class MDFileWriter

java.lang.Object

chemaxon.descriptors.MDWriter

chemaxon.descriptors.MDFileWriter

@PublicAPI
public class MDFileWriter
extends MDWriter

Writes chemical descriptor sets (MDSet)s into text files. The output file can either be a bunch of descriptor files, in which case one MDSet component is associated with one file; or it can also be an SDfile, in which case custom tags are written along with the molecule and with its existing tags that store the MolecularDescriptors in a format that MDFileReader can interpret.
In the output one component is written per file. The unique identifier of MDSet objects is printed in all files. Always blank space is used as a separator character. The descriptor file contains two header lines, the first is the type name of the descriptor, while the second is the configuration string used in the descriptor generation.

Since:

JChem 2.0
