Hi all,
I have a question about the TTree friend mechanism. I have two trees with the same name, and a branch with the same name. I want to add one tree as a friend to the other and be able to access the branches seperately. Here is the relevant code:
To create the tree and add the friend:
TFile * f = new TFile("/data1/elplatt/col1.root", "READ");
TTree * tree = f->Get("CMSJetTree");
tree->SetDirectory(0); // So tree isn't deleted when file is closed
f->Close();
tree->AddFriend("CMSJetTree2 = CMSJetTree", "/data1/elplatt/col2.root");
To set the branch addresses:
fTree->SetBranchAddress("Jets", &fJet1);
fTree->SetBranchAddress("CMSJetTree2.Jets", &fJet2);
It seems that both branches are combined and placed into the “Jets” branch and the
"CMSJetTree2.Jets" results in a segmentation violation when GetEntry() is called.
What should I be doing instead?
