Known limitation: BAM PNEXT field is not always correct #9

@janinl

Description

@janinl

PNEXT becomes incorrect if some VCF insertions of deletions are present between the 2 ends of a read cluster.

We could set PNEXT to 0, a valid value showing that the information is unavailable, but we decided to stick with the incorrect value as it is still informative when browsing the BAM file manually.

See

unsigned long PNEXT = (directionIsForward?startPos2:startPos1) + globalPosShift; // TODO: This PNEXT is incorrect if there are some vcf indels between the 2 ends of the cluster
