---|
| 197 | <P> </P> |
---|
| 198 | In this release the Geant4 code makes now direct usage of <TT><cmath></TT> |
---|
| 199 | for standard mathematical functions. All direct/indirect inclusions of |
---|
| 200 | <TT><math.h></TT> have been removed.<BR> |
---|
| 201 | To be compliant with this migration, the user code should be modified as well, |
---|
| 202 | by adopting either one of the following approaches: |
---|
| 203 | <UL> |
---|
| 204 | <LI>Put in front of the following standard mathematical functions the <TT>std::</TT> |
---|
| 205 | prefix for the namespace: |
---|

---|
| 207 | pow(), exp(), sqrt(), log(), log10(), sin(), cos(), tan(), |

| 208 | sinh(), cosh(), tanh(), asin(), acos(), atan(), atan2(), |
---|
| 209 | ceil(), floor(), fabs(), fmod(), frexp(), ldexp(), modf() |
---|
| 210 | </PRE></LI> |
---|
| 211 | <LI>Alternatively, for places where code readability is a concern, add in source |
---|
| 212 | files (not headers or inline methods, and after the headers inclusions), the |
---|
| 213 | statement: |
---|
| 214 | <PRE> |
---|
| 215 | using namespace std; </UL> |
---|
| 216 | </PRE> |
---|
| 217 | </UL> |
---|
| 218 | As part of this migration also standard headers like: |

---|
| 220 | <math.h>, <limits.h>, <stdlib.h> |
---|
| 221 | </PRE> |
---|
| 222 | are no longer indirectly included. This may require the user code to include |
---|
| 223 | them if/where necessary.<BR> |
---|
| 224 | To be noticed also that this migration involves also the <I>removal</I> of |
---|
| 225 | usage of the ad-hoc template function originally defined in CLHEP: |
---|
| 226 | <PRE> |
---|
| 227 | T abs(T) |
---|
| 228 | </PRE> |
---|
| 229 | So the definition of this function will not be any longer available in a |
---|
| 230 | indirect way. The standard mathematical function: |
---|
| 231 | <PRE> |
---|
| 232 | std::abs() |
---|
| 233 | </PRE> |
---|
| 234 | will have to be used instead. |

| 241 | libraries and sources; libraries are now first built in the local directory |
---|
| 242 | where the source has been downloaded and unpacked; and will be later-on installed |

---|
| 252 | in Geant4 7.0. Advanced users, who have implemented a physics process should |
---|

---|
| 261 | </PRE> |
---|
| 262 | They have been replaced by the following methods, respectively: |
---|
| 263 | <PRE> |
---|
| 264 | void ProposeTrueStepLength(G4double truePathLength); |
---|
| 265 | void ProposeLocalEnergyDeposit(G4double anEnergyPart); |

---|
| 276 | <B>Step limitation</B> |
---|
| 277 | <P> </P> |
---|
| 278 | A user now needs to change his/her code, in order to limit the step size of a |
---|
| 279 | particle -- when using the class <TT>G4UserLimits</TT> to limit the step. |
---|
| 280 | |
---|
| 281 | Up to the previous release, step limitation due to the maximum step length |
---|
| 282 | of <TT>G4UserLimits</TT> was directly done by <TT>G4SteppingManager</TT>, |
---|
| 283 | while all other limits (<TT>maxTrackLength</TT>, <TT>maxStepNumber</TT>, |
---|
| 284 | <TT>MinKinEnergy</TT> and <TT>minRemainRange</TT>) were dealt by |
---|
| 285 | <TT>G4UserSpecialCuts</TT> process. To solve this inconsistency, |
---|
| 286 | to simplify the majority of applications which do not utilize the step limitation, |
---|
| 287 | and to give more usability to the user, we introduce a new |
---|
| 288 | process <TT>G4StepLimiter</TT> and move the step limitation procedure in |
---|
| 289 | <TT>G4SteppingManager</TT> to this new process. |
---|
| 290 | <UL> |
---|
| 291 | <LI>The new process, <TT>G4StepLimiter</TT>, limits the step size specified by |
---|
| 292 | <TT>G4UserLimits</TT>, but will not kill a track.</LI> |
---|
| 293 | <LI><TT>G4UserLimits</TT> class is kept as it is, and can specify all limits as before.</LI> |
---|
| 294 | <LI><TT>G4UserSpecialCuts</TT> is kept as it is. This process kills |
---|
| 295 | a track once the track comes to a limit specified by <TT>G4UserLimits</TT> (as |
---|
| 296 | it did previously). This provides the user the ability |
---|
| 297 | to impose one or more kinds of "tracking cuts".</LI> |
---|
| 298 | <LI>Given no process took place for max step length limitation in the old design, |
---|
| 299 | <TT>G4StepPoint::GetProcessDefinedStep()</TT> method used to return <TT>NULL</TT>. |
---|
| 300 | In the new scheme, if a step is limited by the maximum step |
---|
| 301 | length limitation, this method now returns a valid pointer of <TT>G4StepLimiter</TT> |
---|
| 302 | process.</LI> |
---|
| 303 | </UL> |
---|
| 304 | The user who is using the step length limitation MUST include the new <TT>G4StepLimiter</TT> |
---|
| 305 | process in the physics-list explicitly. This new process may be assigned only to the |
---|
| 306 | selected particle types (e.g. only to the charged particles) instead of setting it to |
---|
| 307 | all particle types.<BR> |
---|
| 308 | No change is required for the user who is NOT using <TT>G4UserLimits</TT> for the |
---|
| 309 | purpose of maximum step limitation. |

| 313 | <B>Killing of a particle</B> |
---|
| 314 | <P> </P> |
---|
| 315 | An advanced user who has created a process with a continuous component |
---|
| 316 | ('AlongStep' action) that can kill or bring a particle to a rest will need to |
---|
| 317 | review their process implementation. |
---|
| 318 | |
---|
| 319 | Energy-loss processes no longer change the track status of a charged particle |
---|
| 320 | as part of their <TT>AlongStepDoIt()</TT> action. |
---|
| 321 | For a user-defined process with a "continuous" component, |
---|
| 322 | in order to stop (and thus either kill or bring to a rest in an 'alive' state) |
---|
| 323 | a particle in its <TT>AlongStepDoIt()</TT> method, |
---|
| 324 | it is now necessary to propose zero kinetic energy for the particle. |
---|
| 325 | Alternatively a process can contribute to the particle arriving at zero energy, |
---|
| 326 | as a result of the action of two or more processes, e.g. energy loss and |
---|
| 327 | propagation in an electric field (in the transportation process). |
---|
| 328 | |
---|
| 329 | Once a particle has zero (or less) proposed energy, it is brought to a rest |
---|
| 330 | and its energy is set exactly to zero. |
---|
| 331 | If the particle can decay, can be annihilated or generally has one or more |
---|
| 332 | 'AtRest' actions, then another step will be performed that calls these; |
---|
| 333 | else, the particle is killed. |
---|
| 334 | The discrete component (or 'PostStep' action) of a process will not be |
---|
| 335 | performed once the particle has come to a stop.<BR> |
---|
| 336 | <I>Note</I>: the case of a particle that comes to a rest in a field and is |
---|
| 337 | then re-accelerated, is not supported at this time. |

| 567 | The mass is computed from the estimated geometrical volume of each solid |
---|
| 568 | and material's density associated to the logical volume and its daughters. |
---|
| 569 | The returned value is cached and can be used for successive calls (default), |
---|
| 570 | unless recomputation is forced by providing <TT>true</TT> as the first boolean |
---|
| 571 | argument in input. Computation should be forced if the geometry setup has |
---|
| 572 | changed after the previous call. An optional argument to specify a material |
---|
| 573 | is provided; it is implicitely used for geometrical parameterisations by |
---|
| 574 | material.</LI> |
---|
| 575 | <LI>Added method <TT>TotalVolumeEntities()</TT> to <TT>G4LogicalVolume</TT>, |
---|

---|
| 577 | replicated/parameterised) included in the tree represented by the current |

---|
| 830 | <LI>Added auxiliary edge visible flag to <TT>G4ViewParameters</TT> and a new |

| 833 | out of polygons, for example, or in plane surface of complicated |
---|
| 834 | shape that has to be broken down into simpler polygons. |
---|
| 835 | <TT>HepPolyhedron</TT> breaks all surfaces into triangles or quadrilaterals. |
---|
| 836 | There will be auxiliary edges for any volumes with a curved surface, |

---|
| 838 | operation. Normally, they are not shown, but sometimes it is useful |

---|
| 849 | <UL> |
---|

---|
| 851 | <PRE> |
---|

---|
| 853 | fpViewer -> GetApplicableVisAttributes (v.GetVisAttributes ()); |
---|
| 854 | </PRE> |
---|
| 855 | where v is the visible object (polyline, circle, polyhedron, etc.).</LI> |
---|
| 856 | <LI>Get view parameters that the user can force through the vis |
---|
| 857 | attributes, thereby over-riding the current view parameter: |
---|
| 858 | <PRE> |
---|
| 859 | G4ViewParameters::DrawingStyle drawing_style = GetDrawingStyle (pVA); |
---|
| 860 | G4bool isAuxEdgeVisible = GetAuxEdgeVisible (pVA); |
---|
| 861 | </PRE> |
---|
| 862 | Most developers do this anyway, so the removed routine was redundant |
---|
| 863 | and resulting code is more efficient and transparent.<BR> |
---|
| 864 | To get colour, the developer can pick up directly from the vis attributes, |
---|
| 865 | pVA, obtained as above: |
---|
| 866 | <PRE> |
---|
| 867 | const G4Colour& c = pVA -> GetColour (); |
---|
| 868 | </PRE> |
---|
| 869 | or use a slightly less efficient method: |
---|
| 870 | <PRE> |
---|
| 871 | const G4Colour& c = GetColour (v); |
---|
| 872 | </PRE> |
---|
| 873 | where v is the visible object.<BR> |
---|
| 874 | Note that for text, the developer must use a different procedure, |
---|
| 875 | since the default text colour is determined by the default text vis |
---|
| 876 | attributes, which may be specified independent of default vis attributes |
---|
| 877 | of other types of visible objects. A function, <TT>GetTextColour()</TT>, |
---|
| 878 | is provided and the recommended use is: |
---|
| 879 | <PRE> |
---|
| 880 | const G4Colour& c = GetTextColour (text); |
---|
| 881 | </PRE> |
---|
