Hi Claus and others, Your last message message makes me think that I have already written and used such a class since last summer. I called it BrDataHandler and I wrote it so that the user wouldn't have to bother with data sequences. The scheme in a macro using it is: ------------------------------------ gROOT->Reset(); // loading libraries gROOT->LoadClass("BrDataHandler", "libBrDataHandler"); gROOT->LoadClass("RawTrack", "libRawTrack"); // user module based class gROOT->LoadClass("TpcTof", "libTpcTof"); // idem // initial parameters Int_t maxevt = 50000; // number of events to analyze Int_t run = 2535; // initial run number (note: should exist!). Int_t nrun = 1; // number of runs Int_t trigger = 6; // collision events // creating data handler BrDataHandler* hndl = new BrDataHandler(run, nrun, maxevt); hndl->SetGeoFile("/home/nuc/ouerdane/Disk2/Brahms/Runs/run2535.geo"); hndl->SetMagFile("/home/nuc/ouerdane/Disk2/Brahms/Runs/run2535.mag"); hndl->SetParamFile("DetectorParameters.txt"); hndl->SetDataDir("/home/nuc/ouerdane/Disk2/../DATA/"); hndl->SetTrigger(trigger); hndl->Init(); // user analysis modules RawTrack* rt = new RawTrack("rt", "rt"); rt->Book(); rt->Init(); TpcTof* ttm = new TpcTof("TPM2", "TOFW"); TpcTof* ttf = new TpcTof("T2", "TOF1"); ttm->Book(); ttf->Book(); ttm->Init(); ttf->Init(); // adding modules in the data handler: hndl->Add(rt); hndl->Add(ttm); hndl->Add(ttf); // analyzing events do { hndl->Event(); } while (hndl->NextRawEvent()); // the loop will stop if maxevt is reached _OR_ nrun is reached. ------------------------------------------------------------- I only used it for my own needs since I thought people had their own methods or codes to do that. But it may be a good idea to have a standard class to deal with data sequences so that the user only has to write some analysis modules which could be handled by such a class. Christian Holm wrote some nice classes (cf previous mails about BrMainModule and so on) which could serve as a base for that. But if you wish to have a look at the stuff I'm using, I need someone to tell me how and where I can check it in. Cheers, Djam
