How to merge two TList of two different TFiles?

ROOT

Hi everyone.
I’m trying to merge two TLists (that contain 1D e 2D histograms) of two different TFiles in one new TFile.
Anyone could help me?
Thanks in advance

Hi,

Have you tried to use the command line tool “hadd” ?

At the shell command line, simply type “had” to get online help.

Best Regards

simply do simething like

TFile f("file.root","recreate"); list1->Write(); list2->Write();

Actually I have two files:
TFile* AnalysisResults410.root
KEY: TDirectoryFile PWG3_D2H_Lc2pK0S_0;1 PWG3_D2H_Lc2pK0S_0

and
TFile* AnalysisResults409.root
KEY: TDirectoryFile PWG3_D2H_Lc2pK0S_10;1 PWG3_D2H_Lc2pK0S_10

If I open these two TDirectoryFile I have, for the first file:
TDirectoryFile* PWG3_D2H_Lc2pK0S_0 PWG3_D2H_Lc2pK0S_0
KEY: TList chist0;1 Doubly linked list

for the second:
TDirectoryFile* PWG3_D2H_Lc2pK0S_10 PWG3_D2H_Lc2pK0S_10
KEY: TList chist10;1 Doubly linked

chist0 and chist10 have the same histrograms inside, for example chist0:
OBJ: TH1F fCEvents conter : 0 at: 0x1008330

I would have a new file AnalysisResultsMerge, with a new TDirectoryFile PWG3_D2H_Lc2pK0S with a TList “chist” in wich i would merge all the histrograms in chist0 and chist10.
