Hello,
I have a TTree in a root file which I want to read for an analysis. In one of the branches the TTree holds objects of an ‘user defined’ class.
The tree is working just fine: I can do everything using the ROOT Cint (i.e. using a macro). The problem arise when I try to run a program to carry out the tasks: It always gives a segmentation fault when it tries to access to the TTree’s entries (i.e. using GetEntry()):
*** Break *** segmentation violation

The program is running. Quit anyway (and detach it)? (y or n) [answered Y; input not from terminal]
Detaching from program: /proc/19829/exe, process 19829
I have attached a tar file with the program itself. There you can find a macro called analysis.C which is working just perfect, and a program called KsRec.cc which pretends to do exactly the same, but it crashes giving the segmentation fault. I compile and link the program with no errors (I have included all the particular headers and shared libraries that the program needs).
Unfortunately, you won’t be able neither to compile nor run the program. But I would be very grateful if somebody has an idea or a clue about why the program fails.
Thanks!
