Hello base developers,

I just found out that I simulated 150 GB of worthless data for the TDR: all tracks straight, no magnetic field inside the propagation.
Apparently, there have been recent upgrades in the base folder:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Geometry is now initialized before the field, request from CBM

r12159 | turany | 2011-06-01 12:00:52 +0200 (Wed, 01 Jun 2011) | 1 line
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Change code to elliminate all effective c++ warnings.

r12206 | uhlig | 2011-06-06 13:37:41 +0200 (Mon, 06 Jun 2011) | 1 line
------------------------------------------------------------------------


Something in there breaks my macros:
Warning in <gufld>: Using deprecated function TVirtualMCApplication::Field().
Warning in <gufld>: New TVirtualMagField interface should be used instead.


I did not have the time to look into this, but going back to revision 12158 just in the base folder fixes the problems.

I think we have to be really careful with changes in the base folders. If there are any consequences to simulation macros, these have to be properly announced.

Did I miss some discussion about this?

The version running on the grid is not affected, right?



Cheers

Felix

Hi,

The Grid is based on may11 = rev 12136... that should be fine,

Hi,

This was my mistake, In CBM they wanted to have the geometry build before initializing the field, and doing this cause the error! Sorry.

It is corrected now in r 12252.


Cheers,

Mohammad
