This class extends the functionality of AliVCuts in the way that the cut implementation can add user information to the selection results: The method IsSelected of class AliVCuts returns a bool, representing whether an object was selected or not. For some selections, i.e. the hybrid track selection, where certain track types are defined, this is oversimplified. Instead one wants to return a selection status (track selected or not) and a user information which in case of hybrid tracks stores the hybrid track type. This is done using a smart pointer approach implemented in AliEmcalTrackSelResultPtr.

User classes inheriting from AliEmcalCutBase must implement the function IsSelected(const TObject *), this time returning an AliEmcalTrackSelResultPtr with

  • Selection Status
  • Pointer to track processed
  • User information (optional)
