Dear experts,
I need to perform a simultaneous fit on a binned data set with 8 bins.
I have adapted the example here ROOT: tutorials/roofit/rf501_simultaneouspdf.C Source File
and everything works fine up to 7 bins: I can create the combined data set and I can perform the fit with 7 PDFs.
When adding last data set to the combined data set, I break the RooDataSet constructor since it requires at most 11 arguments and I am providing 12.
This is the error message I get:
fit_signal_sim.C:536:16: error: no matching constructor for initialization of ‘RooDataSet’
…comb_data(“comb_data”, “combined data”, RooArgSet(m), Index(sample), Import(“bin_1”, mass_bin_1), Import(“bin_2”, mass_bin_2), Import(“bin_3”, mass_bin_3), Import(“bin_4”, mass_bin_4), Import(“bin_5”, mass_bin_5), Import(“bin_6”, mass_bin_6), Import(“bin_7”, mass_bin_7), Import(“bin_8”, mass_bin_8));

My question is: what is the correct approach for binned fit with more than 7 bins?
Thank you
