Detailed Description

The run manager controls the flow of the Geant4 program and manages the event loop(s) within a run.

The run manager is also responsible for managing initialization procedures, including methods in the user initialization classes. By definition of Geant4, this class has to be a singleton.

Member Function Documentation

beginRun()

void beginRun

(

int

runNumber

)

Prepares Geant4 for a new run.

Parameters

runNumber

The current number of the run.

Definition at line 49 of file RunManager.cc.

{
  //Initialize Geometry FIXME: done run independent at the moment
  //InitializeGeometry();
  //Check if all the necessary initializations have already be done.
  if (ConfirmBeamOnCondition()) {
    //Set run number
    SetRunIDCounter(runNumber);
 
    //Finish initialization
    ConstructScoringWorlds();
    RunInitialization();
  } else {
    B2FATAL("The Geant4 kernel was not initialized properly ! The method 'ConfirmBeamOnCondition()' failed. ");
  }
}
