Class Acts::TrackingGeometryBuilder

class TrackingGeometryBuilder : public Acts::ITrackingGeometryBuilder

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

It retrieves an array of std::functions that build the TrackingGeometry sequentially in order, with the following options:

  • 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

Public Functions

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

Constructor.

Parameters
  • cgbConfig[in] is the configuration struct for this builder

  • logger[in] logging instance

~TrackingGeometryBuilder() override = default

Destructor.

inline Config getConfiguration() const

Get configuration method.

Returns

the current configuration

void setConfiguration(const Config &cgbConfig)

Set configuration method.

Parameters

cgbConfig – is the new configuration struct

void setLogger(std::unique_ptr<const Logger> newLogger)

set logging instance

Parameters

newLogger – the new logging instance

virtual std::unique_ptr<const TrackingGeometry> trackingGeometry(const GeometryContext &gctx) const final

TrackingGeometry Interface method.

Parameters

gctx – geometry context of that building call

Returns

a unique pointer to a TrackingGeometry

struct Config

Nested Configuration for the CylinderVolumeBuilder.

Public Members

GeometryIdentifierHook geometryIdentifierHook

Optional geometry identfier hook to be used during closure.

Note

Will be copied when calling the geometry building

The optional material decorator for this.

std::vector< std::function< std::shared_ptr< TrackingVolume > const GeometryContext &gctx, const TrackingVolumePtr &, const VolumeBoundsPtr &)> > trackingVolumeBuilders

The list of tracking volume builders.

std::shared_ptr<const ITrackingVolumeHelper> trackingVolumeHelper = nullptr
