Detailed Description

Interface class ITrackingVolumeArrayCreators It inherits from IAlgTool.

It is designed to centralize the code to create Arrays of Tracking Volumes for both:

• confinement in another TrackingVolume
• navigation and glueing

Arrays for glueing and confinement are often the same, therefore the newly created TrackingVolumeArray is done by a shared_ptr

virtualdefault

Virtual destructor.

Member Function Documentation

trackingVolumeArray()

virtual std::shared_ptr< const TrackingVolumeArray > Acts::ITrackingVolumeArrayCreator::trackingVolumeArray ( const GeometryContext & gctx, const TrackingVolumeVector & vols, AxisDirection aDir ) const

pure virtual

TrackingVolumeArrayCreator interface method - creates array depending on the binning type.

Parameters

[in]	gctx	the geometry context for this building
	vols	are the TrackingVolumes ordered in a tracker
	aDir	is the axis direction for the volume binning

Returns

shared pointer to a new TrackingVolumeArray

Implemented in Acts::TrackingVolumeArrayCreator.
