The parameter file generator DLL was historically used by the Analysis Manager in DMS to generate SEQUEST parameter files using param file settings stored in the DMS database.
- The current iteration of the DLL copies the parameter file for a given analysis job from the parameter file Windows file share to the local working directory.
When the parameter file generator is compiled using Visual Studio, a program for manually creating or obtaining parameter files is created;
see ParamGenTest.exe in directory ParamGenTest\bin.
- The DMS Param File Generator has a GUI interface for selecting the parameter file type (MS-GF+, MaxQuant, FragPipe, etc.), the parameter file to create or retrieve, and the output directory.
