Class Acts::LayerArrayCreator

class Acts::LayerArrayCreator : public Acts::ILayerArrayCreator

The LayerArrayCreator is a simple Tool that helps to construct LayerArrays from std::vector of Acts::CylinderLayer, Acts::DiscLayer, Acts::PlaneLayer.

It fills the gaps automatically with Acts::NavigationLayer to be processed easily in the Navigation of the Extrapolation process.

Public Functions

inline LayerArrayCreator(const Config&, std::unique_ptr<const Logger> logger = getDefaultLogger("LayerArrayCreator", Logging::INFO))

Constructor.

Parameters

logger – logging instance

~LayerArrayCreator() override = default

Destructor.

virtual std::unique_ptr<const LayerArray> layerArray(const GeometryContext &gctx, const LayerVector &layersInput, double min, double max, BinningType bType = arbitrary, BinningValue bValue = binX) const override

LayerArrayCreator interface method.

Parameters

  • gctx – ist the geometry context for witch the array is built

  • layersInput – are the layers to be moved into an array

  • min – is the minimum value for binning

  • max – is the maximum value for binning

  • bType – is the binning type

  • bValue – is the value in which the binning should be done

Returns

unique pointer to a newly created LayerArray

inline void setLogger(std::unique_ptr<const Logger> logger)

set logging instance

struct Config

This struct stores the configuration of the tracking geometry.
