Hi brahmsers,
A new version of brat has been tagged 1.10.2
This version contains the following modifications (according to Flemming's
comments about our software development at NBI):
global tracking:
---------------
** the track length is now available from BrMRSTrack and BrFFTrack
it still assumes a vertex at (0,0,0)
the methods are e.g. void BrMRSTrack::PathLength() for the calculation
Double_t BrMRSTrack::GetLength() to get the result
** some new files (BrMRSTrack.cxx and BrFFSTrack.cxx) contains the
source code since BrSpectrometerTracks.cxx only contained constructors
and destructors of these classes.
** in addition to that you can get the BrHelix object that describes the
path inside the magnet:
the calculation is made by e.g. void BrMRSTrack::HelixBranch() (called
in PathLength())
you get the result with Double_t BrMRSTrack::GetHelix()
Double_t BrFFSTrack::GetHelixD2()
for D1, nothing was done. The SwimBack method is used to calculate the
entrance and exit points of the track in D1 effective edge planes.
** the "getter" functions have been made "const".
** the BrHelix class has been transfered from the pid library to the
track library
** made code compatible with W-NT environment (as far as I know...)
particle identification
------------------------
all the modules (BrMRSPid, BrFFSPid, BrPidModule except the old
BrGeneratePid) have been changed so that they behave like standard
BrModule derived classes, in particular, the histogram section is
conformed to that.
Removed all global variables, unnecessary methods like TrackLength() and
Helix() which are now part of the global tracking.
Removed all useless headerfiles, private members (histograms and other
obsolete members)
Use now the BrEventManager to retrieve information about the event.
The TestPid program reflects these new changes. So far, it worked with
simple geant simulation.
all makefiles and cint files have been modified in consequence
detector parameters
-------------------
Added a "TOFW" section (a copy of the TFPn sections) to make the latest
tof classes work (cf previous email about tof the classes).
test/brat-config
-----------------
the version number has been changed to reflect the new tagged version
***************
If you face any problem with this version because of some changes made
here at NBI, mention it ASAP.
If you have some comments or suggestions about these changes, please send
a message with all your points.
Cheers!
Djamel
