def python.xAODEventInfoCreator.xAODEventInfoCreator	(		sequence = None,
			stream = None,
			key = "",
			outkey = "EventInfo"
	)

Helper function for creating xAOD::EventInfo.

Helper function that schedules the algorithm for creating an xAOD::EventInfo
object out of the AOD's EventInfo one.

Arguments:
  sequence: Optional sequence to which the components should be added.
            If not specified, the main algorithm sequence is used.
  stream: Optional stream that the objects should be written to.
          If not specified, the objects are added to StreamXAOD.
  key: Optional StoreGate key for the AOD object that is supposed to be
       translated.
