Hello Mark,
Please correct the following: The part that says, "Cannot grok these
events" should be changed to "CAN grok these events". Any app built against
a hddm model with a _s suffix in the name CAN read these files. I explained
this to Mark by email, but perhaps it did not register.
-Richard
genBH and Non-Standard HDDM Output Data
Mark D. reported problems with genBH, an optionally built event generator
from the HDGeant4 repository. It produces output in the hddm_mc_s schema of
HDDM and not in the usual hddm_s schema. Programs downstream of event
generation cannot grok these events. He has modified a private version to
use hddm_s. The package requires Richard's Dirac++ package, which we do not
build as part of the standard software stack. There was discussion, not
conclusive, about whether the modified version should be put into some
other repository, presumably halld_sim.
