BuildConvertedElisions()

void TConvertingBranchElement::BuildConvertedElisions ( )

private

Add dummy nodes if needed to recover the correct tree structure.

Given a TBranchElement tree structure, Root will elide some of the intermediate tree nodes. For example, given:

a a.b a.b.c a.b.c.d1 a.b.c.d2

Root will elide the ‘c’ node — so one has node ‘a’, with child ‘a.b’, with children ‘a.b.c.d1’ and ‘a.b.c.d2’.

This greatly complicates the process of running conversions, if ‘c’ has a conversion. So, what we do is if we determine that a conversion is needed, we modify the tree to reinsert the elided nodes. These nodes will have the kIsDummy flag set. Further, if we do that, we remember the original branch list from the parent node (‘a.b’ in the above example), so that if the structure is written, we can write the original, elided structure.

GetEntry()

Int_t TConvertingBranchElement::GetEntry ( Long64_t  entry, Int_t  getall  )

virtual

Read all branches into the previously-declared object.

Parameters

entry	The ntuple row to read.
getall	If true, force reading all branches, even those previously deactivated.

If entry = 0, then use current entry number + 1. If entry < 0, then reset entry number to 0.

Returns the number of bytes read from the input buffer. If entry does not exist, then returns 0. If an I/O error occurs, then returns -1.

Parameters

entry	The ntuple row to read.
getall	If true, force reading all branches, even those previously deactivated.

If entry = 0, then use current entry number + 1. If entry < 0, then reset entry number to 0.

Returns the number of bytes read from the input buffer. If entry does not exist, then returns 0. If an I/O error occurs, then returns -1.

Some notes about conversions. If this branch has a conversion, then rather than reading directly into the target address, we instead read into a temporary object of the persistent type (fConvObject), and then call the converter to copy from the persistent to the transient object. We override SetAddress so that this will get set correctly for children of converted classes.

Note that the need to call the converter from the branch node corresponding to the class with the conversion is why we have problems with elided tree nodes — and the reason for BuildConvertedElisions.

Containers are more complicated. Suppose we have something like:

struct A { int a1; int a2; }; struct B { int b1; A b2; }; struct C { std::vector<B> c1; };

and we're working on the vector.

The way Root handles this is that we have three branches: c1.b1, c1.b1.a1, c1.b1.a2 holding the container data. In addition, the container branch c1 will hold the count of the number of elements in the container. What Root does is:

• First read the element count from branch c1. This will be stored in the c1 TBranchElement. Its children point to it to get the number of elements.
• We then loop over the branches.
• We read all elements at once for each branch, via TBranchInfo::ReadBufferSTL. We get the number of elements by looking in the parent container branch. Note that for the children of the container, the address set via SetAddress is not the address of the object itself, but rather the address of a collection proxy. The proxy is then associated with the actual container being read.

Now, when we try to do this with conversions, we run into the problem that we need the complete object in order to run the conversion. One way of doing this would be to buffer the complete collection of persistent objects, then loop over them calling the converter. I wanted to avoid having to do that for large collections, so what's done here is somewhat more complicated. The idea is to change the order of the loop over the branches and the loop over the elements, so that we make one complete object at a time. In a little more detail:

• We change the type of the children of the containers from 31/41 (member field of container) to 2 (normal member).
• When reading the collection branch, we read the number of elements, then loop over each element. For each element, we loop over each branch, calling GetEntry. But first, we call SetAddress to pass in the address of the temporary persistent object (if a conversion is being done for the object directly contained by the container) or the address of the object in the container (if the conversion is further down).
• A complication is that normally when GetEntry is called for a member in a container, it (via ReadLeaves) resets the TBuffer to point at the first element in the collection. Because of how we've rearranged the loops, we want this to happen only on the first time. To accomplish this, a ‘dont_reset’ flag is introduced, to tell GetEntry not to call ReadLeaves. It would be most natural to do this by adding a parameter to GetEntry. However, at this point, we do not want to change the GetEntry interface. So, instead of passing this as an argument, it's passed in a member variable, fConvDontReset.

All of this is handled by the following methods: GetEntry ReadLeaves ReadSubBranches
