[Halld-online] Run number in EVIO files?

[David Lawrence]

Hi Sean,

  Oddly enough, having the run number embedded in the file is a CODA configuration option that is *off* by default.
This has been fixed for our primary configurations already. I went ahead and modified the following configurations
in hdops to also include it for completeness. As a reminder, this is the “RunData” checkbox in the PEB or SEB
component configuration window. In order to properly handle the cases where this info is not present, I will need
to modify the DAQ plugin to fall back to the file name and possibly a user-supplied configuration parameter to set
the run number since it is not available anywhere else. I’ll let you know when that is ready.

hd_all_mc.tsg
hd_all_st.tsg
hd_all.tsg_st
hd_cdc_fdc.tsg_mc
hd_fdc.tsg_mc
hd_fdc.tsg


Regards,
-Dave

In fact, they seemed to have a run number of 0, and when I looked at the verbose output of the DAQ plugin, it didn't seem like a run number was being read in.  Is the run number being saved in the EVIO files currently?
