[Clas12_calcom] CCDB tools and functionalities: input from detector groups

[Maurizio Ungaro]

Hi,

With the new tools under development for calibration/reconstructions, we can do more than in the past.
The CCDB API should match these advances. We should be able to ask a table, among others:
 
- its variations
- its run numbers
- its history 

We should be able to do these queries programmatically, from C++ and Java. 

Regards,

Mauri

This requires the extension of the CCDB API functionalities that we need to discuss with the CCDB experts.

The input you can provide will be important to develop a complete workflow for the handling of calibration constants and come up with a comprehensive lists of functionalities we need of have.
