String format of datatypes in branchDescriptor


Please read tips for efficient and successful posting and posting code

ROOT Version: 6.34.4
Platform: Linux
Compiler: Not Provided


In the description of class ReadFile I see that the branchDescriptor should have the following format:

A/D:Table[2]/F:Ntracks/I:astring/C

So,

    D -> Double
    F -> Float
    I -> Integer
    C -> String

Are these all the available datatypes? I searched doc but couldn’t found where are documented, I mean that literal C corresponds to String etc.

Hi,
there are more types described here: ROOT: TTree Class Reference
