COATJAVA (pre)release 4a.5.3

Same as 4a.5.2 but with a byte/int bug fix.

COATJAVA (pre)release 4a.5.2

Same as 4a.5.1 but with the time issue in the decoding of SVT fixed.

COATJAVA (pre)release 4a.5.1

Similar to 4a.5.0 but with EC reconstruction bug fix, reading t2d constant bug fix, and reading DMax from ccdb added. Still not thoroughly tested yet. Known bug in the decoder that affects timestamp. This version is being released in parallel with GEMC 4a.1.0.

COATJAVA (pre)release 4a.5.0

Major changes to event builder; yaml file now contains file compression option. This release has not been thoroughly tested yet.

COATJAVA (pre)release 4a.4.1

See release notes for pre-release 4a.4.0. The most significant changes are the fixes in the decoder and some updates to the reconstruction codes. To get compression in cooked files,

configuration:
  io-services:
    writer:
      compression: 2

should be added to the bottom of reconstruction.yaml.

The next release will contain some major changes to the event builder.

COATJAVA (pre)release 4a.4.0

Current known issues:

• Event builder does not put tracks from CVT or FT into final Particle bank
• Decoder needs to include VSCM timestamp for SVT
• Decoder always gives ADC=0 for SVT. A quick and dirty fix for this is to modify DetectorDataDgtz.java:

public ADCData setIntegral(int integral){
    this.pulseIntegral = integral;
    this.pulseADC = integral; // add this line
    return this;
}

around line 245. However, how this affects other detectors has not been tested.

• A hipo data chain is needed

CLARA

A frozen and tested version of CLARA is also included here in the downloads. To install this version of CLARA with COATJAVA as a plugin, create and go to a working directory, download coatjava.tar.gz and clara.tar.gz, and run the following commands:

• tar -zxvf clara.tar.gz
• mv coatjava.tar.gz clara/
• cd clara
• rm linux-i586.tar.gz linux-64.tar.gz (see note below!)
• setenv CLARA_HOME $PWD/installation/
• ./install-claracre-clas.sh

Note that in the 4th command you should delete 2 out of the 3 (linux-i586.tar.gz, linux-64.tar.gz, macosx-64.tar.gz), keeping only the one appropriate for your system.

To launch CLARA, run $CLARA_HOME/bin/clara-shell. Then type "help" to get started using CLARA.
