Summary0000102: Create plugin framework to generate simulated CODA-format raw event files from monte carlo input
DescriptionCreate a rawevent plugin framework that the DAQ group can use to generate simulated raw data files. They should not have to know anything about the JANA/DANA system, and what we give them should take care of everything other than creation of the raw data banks in the EVIO event tree that gets written to the output file. Input to their code will be the various hit banks (DTOFRawHit, DBCALHit, etc).

Plugin will be called "rawevent." I am about half-way done at the moment.

I'm about 85% done, still need input on how our translation tables will work. I wrote dummy routines to do the translation. Once I get some details I'll fill these routines in. Then the project can be handed over to the DAQ group.

About 95% done.

Invented translation table format, filled XML fake translation table via python script. rawevent plugin reads table and translates all real hits into fake crate/slot/channel values. No table misses in 1000 events.

Last thing to do is to optimize table access since this occurs in the innermost loops.

Plugin is adequate for generating simulated raw event file. It is checked into SVN.

Some improvements are planned, mainly for optimization.
