HTSJDK is an implementation of a unified Java library for accessing common file formats, such as SAM and VCF, used for high-throughput sequencing data. There are also an number of useful utilities for manipulating HTS data.
Please see the HTSJDK Documentation for more information.
Not all sub-packages of htsjdk are subject to the same license, so a license notice is included in each source file or sub-package as appropriate. Please check the relevant license notice whenever you start working with a part of htsjdk that you have not previously worked with to avoid any surprises.
We will support all Java SE versions supported by Oracle until at least six months after Oracle's Public Updates period has ended (see this link).
