Reference Type Auto Detection
5.4.1 Using GOLDENPATH
5.4.2 Not Using GOLDENPATH
For cDNA mapping projects, the reference type (cDNA or gDNA) can be automatically detected under certain circumstances thus removing the need to specify the reference type on the command line. The logic employed depends on whether or not the GOLDENPATH environmental variable is in use.
