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.
|
|
|
|
The "basic" set of examples is oriented to novice users and covering
|
|
the most typical use-cases of a Geant4 application with keeping simplicity
|
|
and ease of use.
|
|
|
|
An "extended" set of examples may require some additional libraries besides
|
|
of Geant4. This set covers many 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.
|
|
See the detailed instructions how to build and how to run an example
|
|
in README.HowToRun and README.HowToRunTestEm1. Several tips how to run
|
|
an example in multi-threading mode can be found in README.HowToRunMT.
|
|
|
|
Basic and most of the extended examples are considered part of the
|
|
system testing suite for validation of the official releases of the
|
|
GEANT4 toolkit. Basic and some of the extended and advanced
|
|
examples are also used as "acceptance"-tests for the release process.
|
|
|
|
The previous set of examples oriented to novice users, "novice",
|
|
has been refactored in "basic" and "extended" examples sets in Geant4 10.0.
|
|
The source code of the last version of the original novice examples set
|
|
(in 9.6.p02 release) can be viewed in the Geant4 LXR code browser:
