In LHCb we try to play with the xrayTel example to learn how to make histograms in Geant4. In the README file of the example we find: setenv OGLHOME /afs/cern.ch/sw/geant4/dev/Mesa/Linux-g++ we have no access to this directory setenv LIZARDROOT /usr/local/freeLizard/3.2.0 this directory does not exist on Lxplus in .../share/mgt/ g4analysis-setup.csh we have found setenv LIZARDROOT "$LHCXX_REL_DIR/include/Interfaces -I$LHCXX_REL_DIR/include/AI DA_HTL -I$LHCXX_REL_DIR" we have guessed that LHCXX_REL_DIR could be /afs/cern.ch/sw/lhcxx/specific/redhat61/3.2.0 we have got also Mesa from the same area. with all these settings we could compile and execute : no warnings BUT we don't get any histogram. The README file says that histograming windows will automatically open and the corresponding files will be created. BUT no window is opened aaand no file is created. Is anybody could help? many thanks, Florence Ranjard
Maria Grazia, could you forward this to the person who is responsible to this extended example, please?
The problem should be reassigned to the example responsible, Ramon Nartallo (ESA), but the PRS does not let me do so (it complains that Ramon's address is not a valid one). Hopefully, the PRS experts will fix the re-direction. As an additional piece of information, I may say that my own students in Genova not only have run the example successfully, but, by copying its features into their own applications, have been able to produce histograms with Lizard and visualisation outputs in various formats. Best regards, Maria Grazia Pia
