Description Alexis Schubert 2008-09-25 23:02:08 CEST 
Running a simulation in Geant4 version 9.2b generates output with the following form:

--> PHOTONENERGY1 = 254.631
--> PHOTONENERGY1 = 225.22
--> PHOTONENERGY1 = 1478.11
...

For a few thousand primary events, several thousand lines of output result. 

This output persists when verbosity is set to zero, and seems to be coming from line 268 of the following file:
source/processes/electromagnetic/lowenergy/src/G4LowEnergyCompton.cc

Could this line of output be made to respond to verbosity settings?  The amount of output is a problem when running large simulations.

The problem report should be reassigned to Sebastien Incerti; nevertheless, he Bugzill rejected the redirection as Incerti does not appear to be registered in the system. Koichi, could you please take care of the reassignment?
Comment 2 Sebastien Incerti 2008-09-30 08:58:37 CEST 
The problem is caused by an annoying G4cout line in the G4LowEnergyCompton.cc file.
