[Bioperl-l] standalone blast on 2 databases

[Damien Mattei]

I want to do a standalone blast on 2 databases,
i know it is possible, as i can do it on the
command line specifying the name of databse with -d "nt htg" option
  for example,but when i do it in bio-perl i get an error:

@params = ('program'  => 'blastn',
             'database' => 'nt htg',
	    'outputfile' => 'blast_gmap.out' );

  $factory = Bio::Tools::Run::StandAloneBlast->new(@params);

result in:
[blastall] ERROR: Arguments must start with '-' (the offending argument 
#5 was: 'htg')
------------- EXCEPTION  -------------
MSG: blastall call crashed: 256 /home/dmattei/ncbi/build/blastall -p 
blastn  -d  /home/dmattei/ncbi/db/nt htg  -i 
/home/dmattei/tmp/gi5622463  -o  blast1.out

is there a way to blast in both databases?
