29 // November 2000, updated to use Pythia 6.1
30 // example of generating events with Pythia
31 // using HepMC/PythiaWrapper.h
32 // Events are read into the HepMC event record from the FORTRAN HEPEVT
33 // common block using the IO_HEPEVT strategy and then output to file in
34 // ascii format using the IO_Ascii strategy.
36 // To Compile: go to the HepMC directory and type:
37 // gmake examples/example_MyPythia.exe
38 //
39 // In this example the precision and number of entries for the HEPEVT
40 // fortran common block are explicitly defined to correspond to those
41 // used in the Pythia version of the HEPEVT common block.
42 //
43 // If you get funny output from HEPEVT in your own code, probably you have
44 // set these values incorrectly!
