Member Function Documentation

const QGeomVector& QTower::GetPosition

(

)

const [inline]

get the position of this tower

Returns:

const reference to the QGeomVector containing the position of the tower

the position of a tower corresponds to the corner of crystal 1 in the top floor

bool QTower::AddCrystal	(	int	channel,
		const QCrystal &	crystal
	)

add crystal to tower

Parameters:

	channel	channel associated to the crystal
	crystal	crystal to be added

const QCrystal * QTower::GetCrystal

(

int

channel

)

const

get crystal

Returns:

pointer to requested crystal or NULL if cannot be found

QError QTower::LoadMap

(

const std::string &

fileName

)

load detector map

Parameters:

fileName

file from which the detector map will be read. It can be a standard file name or "DB". In this case the detector map is read from database.

Returns:

QError. On success the error code is set to QERR_SUCCESS. On failure it is set to a value that can be different depending On the way the detector map is being loaded (file or database). See specific methods LoadFromFile() and LoadFromDb() for further details on returned error codes.

QError QTower::LoadFromFile

(

const std::string &

fileName

)

[private]

load detector map from file

Parameters:

fileName

name of the file containing the detector map

Returns:

QError, with following error codes:

• QERR_SUCCESS: load from file succeeded
• QERR_CANNOT_OPEN_FILE: failed to open input file
• QERR_UNDEFINED_NUMBER: error in file format
• QERR_UNDEFINED_LG: a crystal from the same channel is already present in the tower

File format description:
The input file must be in ASCII format. Lines beginning with '#' are treated as comments and are ignored. Each non-comment line describes a different crystal. The fields of each line are the following (all of them are mandatory):

• Channel
• Crystal position X (mm)
• Crystal position Y (mm)
• Crystal position Z (mm)
• Crystal dimension X (mm)
• Crystal dimension Y (mm)
• Crystal dimension Z (mm)

Positions and dimensions are in mm. The position refers to the center of the crystal. For example, a crystal with positionZ = 0 and dimensionZ=10 will have the top face at Z=-5 and the bottom face at Z=5.
