Detailed Description

a simple interface to interact with the Reflex dictionaries and abstract/workaround a few ROOT bugs. There are 2 methods in this interface: has_type to check if a type is known to the reflex system load_type to retrieve the RootType associated with a given C++ type (by name or by std::type_info)

has_type() [1/3]

virtual bool IDictLoaderSvc::has_type ( CLID  clid )

pure virtual

check a Reflex dictionary exists for a given type

Implemented in AthDictLoaderSvc.

has_type() [2/3]

virtual bool IDictLoaderSvc::has_type ( const std::string &  type_name )

pure virtual

check a Reflex dictionary exists for a given type

Implemented in AthDictLoaderSvc.

has_type() [3/3]

virtual bool IDictLoaderSvc::has_type ( const std::type_info &  typeinfo )

load_type() [1/3]

virtual const RootType IDictLoaderSvc::load_type ( CLID  clid, bool  recursive = false  )

pure virtual

retrieve a RootType by name (auto)loading the dictionary by any necessary means.

If recursive is true, then recursively load contained types.

Implemented in AthDictLoaderSvc.

load_type() [2/3]

virtual const RootType IDictLoaderSvc::load_type ( const std::string &  type_name, bool  recursive = false  )

pure virtual

retrieve a RootType by name (auto)loading the dictionary by any necessary means.

If recursive is true, then recursively load contained types.

Implemented in AthDictLoaderSvc.

load_type() [3/3]

virtual const RootType IDictLoaderSvc::load_type ( const std::type_info &  typeinfo, bool  recursive = false  )

pure virtual

retrieve a RootType by std::type_info (auto)loading the dictionary by any necessary means.

This method is preferred over the above one as it is guaranteed to succeed IF the dictionary for that type has been generated. If recursive is true, then recursively load contained types.

Implemented in AthDictLoaderSvc.
