Detailed Description

Interface to a service with detector-specific geometry knowledge.

This is an interface to a service that virtualizes detector or experiment-specific knowledge that is required by the Geometry service. Experiments implement the private virtual function within a concrete service provider class to perform the specified actions as appropriate for the particular experiment.

It is expected that such requests will occur infrequently within a job. Calculations that occur frequently should be handled via interfaces that are passed back to the Geometry service.

Note

The public interface for this service cannot be overriden. The experiment-specific sub-classes should implement only the private methods without promoting their visibility.

Virtual destructor; does nothing.

Member Function Documentation

ChannelMapAlgPtr_t geo::ExptGeoHelperInterface::ConfigureChannelMapAlg ( fhicl::ParameterSet const &  sortingParameters, std::string const &  detectorName  ) const

inline

Configure and initialize the channel map.

Parameters

sortingParameters	parameters for the channel map algorithm
detectorName	name of detector described by geometry

Returns

a (shared) pointer to the channel mapping algorithm

This method creates a new ChannelMapAlg according to the geometry and specified configuration.
