class Acts::ITrackingVolumeArrayCreator

Interface class ITrackingVolumeArrayCreators It inherits from IAlgTool.

It is designed to centralize the code to create Arrays of Tracking Volumes for both:

  • confinement in another TrackingVolume

  • navigation and glueing

Arrays for glueing and confinement are often the same, therefore the newly created TrackingVolumeArray is done by a shared_ptr

Subclassed by Acts::TrackingVolumeArrayCreator

Public Functions

~ITrackingVolumeArrayCreator() = default

Virtual destructor.

std::shared_ptr<const TrackingVolumeArray> trackingVolumeArray(const GeometryContext &gctx, const TrackingVolumeVector &vols, BinningValue bVal) const = 0

TrackingVolumeArrayCreator interface method - creates array depending on the binning type.

Return

sahred pointer to a new TrackingVolumeArray

Parameters

  • [in] gctx: the geometry context for this building

  • vols: are the TrackingVolumes ordered in a tracker

  • bVal: is the binning value for the volume binning
