Yeah it's kind of odd -- I would expect that setting max_loop
to 5
would preclude the output from including a 7 nt loop, but that appears to be the behavior with the standalone primer3
binaries as well (note that the thermodynamic outputs are slightly different due to differences in defaults between the bindings and binaries):
$ ./ntthal -s1 ATCGATCGAATTCCGCGATCGAT -a HAIRPIN -maxloop 5
Calculated thermodynamical parameters for dimer: 23 dS = -179.355 dH = -60100 dG = -4473.18 t = 61.9404
SEQ -///////-------\\\\\\\-
STR ATCGATCGAATTCCGCGATCGAT
Probably best to repost this question over at the primer3
project and see what the library authors have to say:

Hey, I want to limit hairpin loop size, but seems not working?
Here is code:
Here is output:
I think this is a hairpin with loop size of 7, am I understanding right?
