Does it work on Mac where CERNLIB is not available?<br>

My tool also accepts plain old 3-vectors that you type in at the
command line.<br>

Hi Richard,<br>
<br>
Yes, I'm aware of that functionality. I believe this
command-line tool compliments that by providing something that
can be used quickly when the 3-D coordinates of interest are
already known. It is *much* simpler than figuring out how to
plot the right cutaway and then click on the 3-D point of
interest on a 2-D screen. While the resulting information may be
the same, the path to it is different making this a useful
addition to our toolbox.<br>

A tool for this already existed in hdgeant. My tool allows
you to click on a drawing of the detector that is cut
through any arbitrary plane (origin, orientation selected
with numbers or a mouse) and see the entire volume hierarchy
plus the local value of the magnetic field. Of course there
is nothing wrong with having another tool that does the same
thing.<br>

Hi All,<br>
<br>
As I mentioned at the Offline Software meeting today, I
have written a new<br>
utility for examining the geometry. Specifically, if one
gives it an X,Y,Z coordinate<br>
in the lab frame, it will print the volume and material
properties for the<br>
volume at that point. It will also list the entire volume
hierarchy of that volume<br>
outwards to the outermost Mother volume. Here is an example
querying the center<br>
of the target.<br>
<div class="moz-forward-container"><br>
<tt>>hd_geom_query 0 0 65</tt><br>
<br>
<tt> Location: (X, Y, Z) = (0, 0, 65)</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>===============================================</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> Volume: LIH2</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> material: LiqHydrogen</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> density: 0.0708 g/cm^3</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>rad. length: 816.933 cm</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> A: 1.00797</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> Z: 1</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> ancestory: LIH2 -> TGTV -> TARG ->
HALL -> SITE</tt><br>
<br>
One can also have it generate the geometry from the XML at
run-time<br>
using external HDDS tools similar to what was recently
done with hdgeant.<br>
<br>
If the program is run with no arguments, a Usage statement
is printed:<br>
<br>
<tt>>hd_geom_query<br>
<br>
Usage:<br>
hd_geom_query [options] X Y Z<br>
<br>
Print the material properties for the specified point in
lab<br>
coordinates. Units of X,Y, and Z are cm.<br>
<br>
By default, this uses the geometry built into the file
libHDGEOMETRY.a<br>
that was used to link this executable. The -xml switch
may be used<br>
to dynamically compile and link code generated from the
XML at run<br>
time. If an equals sign "=" follows the -xml switch then
the<br>
main_HDDS.xml file is taken from the remainder of that
argument.<br>
<br>
If the -xml switch is specified, then a file named
"tmp_hddsroot.so"<br>
is searched for in the current directory. If found, it
is opened and<br>
the geometry checksum is read from it and compared to
that of the XML<br>
specified (which may be the default of
$HDDS_HOME/main_HDDS.xml).<br>
If the two match, then that shared object is used,
bypassing the<br>
(expensive) compilation phase. If the file is not
present, is unreadable,<br>
or the checksums don't match, then the shared object is
automatically<br>
(re)generated.<br>
<br>
options:<br>
-h or --help Print this usage statement<br>
-xml[=main_HDDS.xml] Dynamically generate geometry<br>
-checksum Print the MD5 checksum of the
<br>
geometry and exit<br>
<br>
If the -xml option is given and no file is specified,<br>
then a value of: $HDDS_HOME/main_HDDS.xml<br>
is used.<br>

New Revision: 10030
Added:
trunk/sim-recon/src/programs/Utilities/hd_geom_query/
trunk/sim-recon/src/programs/Utilities/hd_geom_query/Makefile
trunk/sim-recon/src/programs/Utilities/hd_geom_query/hd_geom_query.cc
Log:
A new utility to get info on the volume located at a
specific location in lab coordinates. This uses the
ROOT TGeo facility. The hddsroot.h file generated by
HDDS is compiled in and used by default. An option
exists to regenerate this file and compile and link
it dynamically similar to what is now done in hdgeant.
