Extracting string from ROOT-tuple

Hello.

I am trying to extract string values stored from a ROOT file (attached). This works as expected with the TBrowser, but not from my (customized) MakeClass (also attached)… Any ideas of what I may be doing wrong?

Thanks.

PS which root
/afs/cern.ch/cms/external/lcg/external/root/5.11.06a/slc3_ia32_gcc323_dbg/root/bin/root
PS2 if you have problems opening the zipped file, rename to foo.tgz
foo.tar (31.9 KB)

Currently the MakeClass mode disable the reading of any full object that are not split (for example your string). You will need to use the original shared library if you need to access the string (see Luca Lista’s effort to provide a template/example of TSelector for CMS files).

Cheers,
