SAM/BAM File
See the github history: https://github.com/statgen/libStatGen/commits/master/bam for a list of the most recent updates to the BAM classes.
Read & Write BAM/SAM Library Software
The software reads the beginning of files opened for reading to determine if it is SAM/BAM. To determine the format (SAM/BAM) of files open for writing, the software checks the output file's extension. If the extension is "bam" it writes a BAM file, otherwise it writes a SAM file.
The library is found in statgen/lib/bam.
