RE: [Brahms-dev-l] root error

Brahms,
  Thanks for all of the suggestions. The code works now.  Bjorn, you were right.  Djamel your suggestion would work to since I just needed a place to dump the memory allocated for the ntuple.

Aye, I think I've seen this before. What happens is that you open an
ntuple in some unspecified place in ROOTs directory structure, i.e. not
linked to a file. Then, when the tree goes over some size, it tries to
write itself to file but doesn't know which file to write to. The fix, at
least for me, was to do the following:

MyClass::Begin() {

	f = new TFile();
        f->cd();
	nt = new TNtuple();

}

MyClass::Event() {
  	nt->Fill();
}

MyClass::Finish() {

	f->cd();
	nt->Write();
	f->Close();
}

I.e. the same as you do, just in a different order. Try it and see :-)
