Geant4 - an Object-Oriented Toolkit for Simulation in HEP
|
|
=========================================================
|
|
|
|
Examples module
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
This module collects three sets of user examples aimed to demonstrate to
|
|
the user how to make correct use of the GEANT4 toolkit by implementing
|
|
in a correct way those user-classes which the user is supposed to
|
|
customize in order to define his/her own simulation setup.
|
|
One set of examples is oriented to "novice" users and covering all
|
|
possible general use-cases typical of an "application"-oriented kind of
|
|
development. An "extended" set of examples require some additional
|
|
libraries besides of Geant4. This set covers some specific use cases
|
|
for actual detector simulation. An "advanced" set of examples covers
|
|
the use-cases typical of a "toolkit"-oriented kind of development,
|
|
where real complete applications for different simulation studies are
|
|
provided; may require additional third party products to be built.
|
|
Most of the examples can be run both in interactive and batch mode, and
|
|
input macro files (*.in) and reference output files (*.out) are provided.
|
|
Novice and most of the extended examples are considered part of the
|
|
system testing suite for validation of the official releases of the
|
|
GEANT4 toolkit. Novice examples and some of the extended and advanced
|
|
examples are also used as "acceptance"-tests for the release process.
