TTree::GetV2-equivalent for TString

Hello again,

I’m currently searching for something that might be very simple, but i just can’t find the right command…

So I’m compiling an overview of my beamtime: How often did we shoot with which energy on which target. The targets are supposed to be on the X-Axis, the energy son the Y-Axis, I’m using TH2I. so far so good. What works to a point is

[code]
Int_t entries = Data.DAQData->Draw(“Zusatzwert_Energie:Zusatzwert_Target”, noLT, “goff”);
Double_t xvalues = new Double_t[entries];
Double_t yvalues = new Double_t[entries];
memcpy(xvalues, Data.DAQData->GetV2(), entries
sizeof(Double_t));
memcpy(yvalues, Data.DAQData->GetV1(), entries
sizeof(Double_t));

TH2I *overview_Targets = new TH2I("Anzahl Schüsse (ohne Leuchttarget)", "Anzahl Schüsse (ohne Leuchttarget)", 17, 0., 16., 51, 47.5, 302.5);


for(Int_t i = 0; i < entries; i++){
  overview_Targets->Fill(xvalues[i], yvalues[i]);
}
overview_Targets->Draw("COLZ");
overview_Targets->Draw("Same Text");
[/code]

However, the branch Zusatzwert_Target contains TStrings and i would like those put on the X-Axis automatically. So is there an equivalent to TTree::GetV2 that returns a TString that i just can’t find.

Best wishes and Thanks in advance

Hi,

a simple way out: why not mapping each string to consecutive integers?
