Method Detail

convert

public MCEvent convert(StdhepEvent hepevt)

Convert from a StdhepEvent to an MCEvent. Useful when reading stdhep files.

convert

public StdhepEvent convert(MCEvent event)

Convert from an EventHeader to a StdhepEvent. Useful when writing stdhep files. Note the stdhep format requires all daughters to be stored consecutively. In principle we would have to do a sort on daughter to gaurantee that this could be accomodated. Right now we just throw a RuntimeException if it is not true.
