class GeometryBuilder

The Acts::TrackingGeometry Builder for volumes that wrap around another.

It retrieves an array of ITrackingVolumeBuilder tools that are configured to be built in sequence, where the output of one volume builder is provided to the next volume volume builder and accordingly

  • contained (e.g. a final insertion of a beam pipe of longer extend)

  • wrapped (e.g. an outer detector wrapping an inner one)

  • attached (e.g. a neighbor detector attaching to the previous one)

The returned volume of each step must be processable by the previous step
