Dear Rooters,
I am trying something I have never seen documented. So probably it is not supported in root. However before giving up I would like to have some expert opinion.
I would like to store an array of std vector in a tree. I am following the usual procedure to fill a tree using a C++ class, building the dictionary and so on.
The following pages are summarising what I am trying to do:
- First of all I define the class that I want to store (.h and .cxx follow):
myClass.h (defines the class I want to use to fill the tree)
#ifndef ROOT_myClass
#define ROOT_myClass
#include <vector>
#include "TObject.h"
class myClass : public TObject {
private:
std::vector<int> vInt;
std::vector<int> avInt[2];
public:
myClass();
virtual ~myClass();
void addTrk(int i);
void addTrkA(int i, int pos);
ClassDef(myClass,1)
};
#endifand its implemetnation in myClass.cxx
#include "myClass.h"
ClassImp(myClass)
myClass::myClass()
{
;
}
myClass::~myClass()
{
;
}
void myClass::addTrk(int i){
vInt.push_back(i);
}
void myClass::addTrkA(int i, int pos){
avInt[pos].push_back(i);
}- From this class I build the dictionary and the dynamic lib using the following commands (I will not report the Linkdef.h):
c++ -O2 -Wall -fPIC -pthread -m64 -I/opt/root/5.34.36/include -c myClass.cxx
rootcint -f myDict.cxx -c myClass.h LinkDef.h
c++ -O2 -Wall -fPIC -pthread -m64 -I/opt/root/5.34.36/include -c myDict.cxx
c++ -shared -O2 -m64 myClass.o myDict.o -o libDict.so - Finally I compile my Main.cpp program:
#include <iostream>
#include "myClass.h"
#include <TSystem.h>
#include <TFile.h>
#include <TTree.h>
#include <TClassTable.h>
using namespace std;
int main(){
if( !TClassTable::GetDict("myClass") ){
cout << "Loading dict" << endl;
gSystem->Load("./libDict.so");
}
TFile f("out.root", "RECREATE");
TTree tree("tree", "tree");
myClass *evt = new myClass();
tree.Branch("evt", "myClass", &evt, 16000, 0);
for(int i=0; i<100; i++){
evt->addTrk(i);
evt->addTrkA(i, 0);
}
tree.Fill();
f.Write();
f.Close();
return 0;
}
Using the command:
g++ -o Main.exe Main.cpp -Wall -std=c++0x -Wno-write-strings -pthread -m64 -I/opt/root/5.34.36/include -L/opt/root/5.34.36/lib -lGui -lCore -lCint -lRIO -lNet -lHist -lGraf -lGraf3d -lGpad -lTree -lRint -lPostscript -lMatrix -lPhysics -lMathCore -lThread -pthread -lm -ldl -rdynamic -L/opt/root/5.34.36/lib -lCore -lCint -lRIO -lNet -lHist -lGraf -lGraf3d -lGpad -lTree -lRint -lPostscript -lMatrix -lPhysics -lMathCore -lThread -pthread -lm -ldl -rdynamic -L./ -lDict- Everything seems to be working and I am able to run. However if I open the tree in a TBrowser and I try to access avInt root crashes saying:
