FileOutputRW

This section describes the parameters which FileOutputRW can be given. These are all AbsParms and configurable via the normal tcl script methods. An example is given at the end.

``outputType'' defines the type of file which will be written. It also determines the file extension to be used. Permissible options are ``xdr'', ``ascii'' (this will change to ``asc'' in a future release), ``bin'' or ``endian'' (this will change to ``end'' in a future release). How these file types are portable is shown in the file $BFROOT/doc/www/Computing/Reconstruction/Common/BaBarRWFiles.html . Endian files are the default.

``outputFile'' defined the file name. This should be set without the extension. The default name is ``reco''.

``oldEmcMatch'' determines which AstMatch objects should be output. If set to be true;

AstMatch< AbsRecoCalo, TrkRecoTrk, Consistency >
AstMatch< TrkRecoTrk, AbsRecoCalo, Consistency >

are output, if not

AstMatch< AbsRecoCalo, TrkRecoTrk, EmcTMInfo >
AstMatch< TrkRecoTrk, AbsRecoCalo, EmcTMInfo >

are output. This is set to false by default and should be since release 4.2.1.

``ifrOutput'' determines if untested data from the Ifr should be output. This is false by default.

An example of a section of a tcl file for this module is;

mod talk FileOutputRW
  outputType set xdr
  outputFile set myPi
  oldEmcMatch set false
  ifrOutput set true
  exit
