readSampleNamesFromVcfHeader

a <code><links4class>TabixFile</links4class></code> object or a character
    string with a file name of the VCF file to read from; if <code>file</code>
    is a file name, the method internally creates a
    <code><links4class>TabixFile</links4class></code> object for this file name.

Reads the header of a VCF file and returns sample names as character vector

This package provides an association test that is capable
        of dealing with very rare and even private variants. This is
        accomplished by a kernel-based approach that takes the
        positions of the variants into account. The test can be used
        for pre-processed matrix data, but also directly for variant
        data stored in VCF files. Association testing can be performed
        whole-genome, whole-exome, or restricted to pre-defined regions
        of interest. The test is complemented by tools for analyzing
        and visualizing the results.
