Hi all,

Currently I'm doing some analysis, in which I want to use the function

Int_t  GetNPoints(DetectorId detId)

of the class PndMCTrack.

I already have access to the information stored in the MCTrack, the only function I have problems with is this one.

As Input parameter an variable from Datatype "DetectorId" is needed.

As far as I understand in the included header file of PndMCTrack "PndDetecterList.h" this Datatyp is defined as:

enum DetectorId {
/** kRICH must be the 1st id, and kHYP must be the last one. Please put new detectors in between!! **/
  kRICH,kDRC,kDSK,kEMC,kGEM,kLUMI,kMDT,kMVD,kRPC,kSTT,kFTOF,kTOF,kFTS,kHYPG,kHYP};

But when I try to use this definition in my analysis macros, I always get errors.

e.g.:

using the line:

MCTrack->GetNPoints(kTOF)

error: Error: Symbol kTOF is not defined in current scope

If I only try to define a variable of type DetectorId:

DetectorId test;

Error: Symbol DetectorId test is not defined in current scope

Can someone explain how to proper use this function of MCTrack?

regards Dominik

Did you add a
#include "PndDetectorList.h"
Or loaded the libPndData.so?

Hello,

no I didn't include the PndDetectorList.h,

So just for a better understanding. When do I have to include the corresponding header files in the macros and when not?

For example I'm also using the functions of different classes like PndMCTrack, or the FairRunAna without including the header files.

Classes are compiled in the shared libraries which are automatically loaded by rootmap. PndDetectorList is not exactly a class, you need to include its header.
