|
|---|
| 9 | ---------------
|
|---|
| 10 |
|
|---|
| 11 | This module collects three sets of user examples aimed to demonstrate to
|
|---|
| 12 | the user how to make correct use of the GEANT4 toolkit by implementing
|
|---|
| 13 | in a correct way those user-classes which the user is supposed to
|
|---|
| 14 | customize in order to define his/her own simulation setup.
|
|---|
| 15 | One set of examples is oriented to "novice" users and covering all
|
|---|
| 16 | possible general use-cases typical of an "application"-oriented kind of
|
|---|
| 17 | development. An "extended" set of examples require some additional
|
|---|
| 18 | libraries besides of Geant4. This set covers some specific use cases
|
|---|
| 19 | for actual detector simulation. An "advanced" set of examples covers
|
|---|
| 20 | the use-cases typical of a "toolkit"-oriented kind of development,
|
|---|
| 21 | where real complete applications for different simulation studies are
|
|---|
| 22 | provided; may require additional third party products to be built.
|
|---|
| 23 | Most of the examples can be run both in interactive and batch mode, and
|
|---|
| 24 | input macro files (*.in) and reference output files (*.out) are provided.
|
|---|
| 25 | Novice and most of the extended examples are considered part of the
|
|---|
| 26 | system testing suite for validation of the official releases of the
|
|---|
| 27 | GEANT4 toolkit. Novice examples and some of the extended and advanced
|
|---|
| 28 | examples are also used as "acceptance"-tests for the release process.
