Hi all,

So in my wrapper for my trimming tool, sickle, I only allow fastq, fastqsanger, fastqillumina, or fastqsolexa input data. However, if a fastqsanger file's datatype has been erroneously changed to fastqcssanger, my tool will still show that file in the dropdown for the possible inputs. Why does this happen?

Because you allowed "fastq", this includes all the subclasses of "fastq" which (unfortunately in this case) includes "fastqcssanger". Peter
