Detailed Description

Class to access a DB Array from Python.

In contrast to the C++ DBArray we don't have templates but python will handle the typing dynamically.

from ROOT import Belle2
bklmmapping = Belle2.PyDBArray('BKLMElectronicMapping')
# Alternative: simhits = Belle2.PyDBArray(Belle2.BKLMElectronicMapping.Class())
# Or with name and type: beamparams = Belle2.PyDBArray("BKLMElectronicMapping, Belle2.BKLMElectronicMapping.Class())
for mapping in bklmmapping:
    print(mapping.getCopperId())

Warning

Be aware that PyDBArray objects are only usable during event flow, that is in the initialize() or event() calls of a module as there is no Conditions data available otherwise.

Sadly the const in the return value is lost in python so this is a protected method and we add a pure python method to wrap the object in something to guarantee constness in framework/scripts/basf2.py
