• 2025-07-08 jmcarcell (PR#322)

• 2025-07-03 jmcarcell (PR#328)

  • Remove the outdated script k4-print-joboptions. It doesn't work on current files, it's not using the podio readers (so it doesn't support RNTuples, if it was working) and the same functionality can easily be obtained with podio-dump.

  • Add a test that uses pipes

• 2025-05-13 jmcarcell (PR#305)

  • Remove the hardcoded collections in the CollectionMerger, using AIDASoft/podio#761. This applies to all collections that are available in EDM4hep.

  • Fix running algorithms with RNTuples as their input and add tests, not working before because the TTRee reader in podio was being used

• 2025-03-05 Thomas Madlener (PR#290)

  • Make the PodioInput.collections, IOSvc.CollectionNames and Reader.InputCollections properties actually work like expected. They now properly limit the collections that are read and no other collections will be available. This requires building against podio > v1.2`, otherwiset the current behavior will be used, where collections that are not requested will still be available.

• 2025-02-26 Mateusz Jakub Fila (PR#287)

  • Use the same event and run type in UniqueIDGenSvc as in edm4hep::EventHeader. Add generating id directly from edm4hep::EventHeader. This changes the ID values !

    • Use bit manipulation with the UniqueIDGenSvc which is about 1000 times faster than the string manipulation that was being done
    • Add a check for the case where an ID is repeated - trying to catch the case where the event number and run number is always the same, then the same random number sequence will be generated.

• 2024-10-03 jmcarcell (PR#243)

  • Fix overwritting the input file for IOSvc from the command line. The k4FWCore wrapper of the ApplicationMgr checks the number of events (needed for multithreading) and if the file exists but this was happening right after the parsing of the file, without taking into account the input file can be overwritten from the command line.
  • Add a test where the input file is being overwritten from the command line

• 2024-10-01 jmcarcell (PR#233)

  • Use podio::Reader and podio::Writer with IOSvc, so that it is easy to write TTrees or RNTuples by changing the IOType parameter given to IOSvc in the steering file.

  • Add a docstring for the function that adds the arguments
  • Remove dead code, obvious comments and global variables

• 2024-09-05 jmcarcell (PR#213)

  • Fail if IOSvc or ApplicationMgr are not imported with from k4FWCore import IOSvc (it can be imported from Configurables). The python wrapper in k4FWCore does a few minor things and importing from Configurables doesn't fail currently and can lead to hard to solve issues.
  • Add an error message when reading a file without the events category. Currently it fails with an error in python that is not very clear.
  • Use Input and Output for IOSvc, deprecate input and output since all the other properties are capitalized. The same for IOType instead of ioType. This will print a warning about a duplicated property that should be ignored for now.
  • Suppress two warnings about using external input when using the default EventLoopMgr.
  • Import ApplicationMgr always from k4FWCore

• 2024-09-04 Mateusz Jakub Fila (PR#231)

  • Add a metadata service that is automatically added when importing IOSvc from k4FWCore, if no metadata is added then the service won't do anything. If metadata is added, the metadata service will hold a podio::Frame with the metadata that the Writer will write. The metadata service only works when there is an output file.
  • Add a test showing an example of its usage
  • Make changes in the MetadaHandle to make it possible to save and read metadata from DataHandle-based algorithms, so that when switching to IOSvc metadata for existing DataHandle algorithms will keep working. Add a test using IOSvc with DataHandle algorithms that write and read metadata.

  • Remove a few unnecessary includes

• 2024-07-30 tmadlener (PR#217)

  • Add the legacy AssociationCollection headers to keep things building after key4hep/EDM4hep#341 has been merged

• 2024-07-26 jmcarcell (PR#206)

  • Delete the version checks before Podio 1.0

• 2024-07-25 Giovanni Marchiori (PR#214)

  • renamed NoiseConstant by NoiseRMS in the noise interfaces (ICaloReadCellNoiseMap, INoiseCaloCellsTool.h and INoiseConstTool.h) to make its physical meaning clearer

• 2024-07-25 jmcarcell (PR#210)

  • Add a filter algorithm, using the PredicateFilter algorithm from Gaudi.
  • Add the minimum handle needed to be able to use the filter from Gaudi and make it work with the rest of the functional algorithms
  • Add a test using this filter

• 2024-07-19 jmcarcell (PR#209)

  • Add an algorithm for merging collections that can merge any number of collections into a new one of the same type. The algorithm supports either creating a subset collection (default) or cloning every object in the collection.
  • Add a test using this algorithm to merge a few collections

• 2024-07-15 jmcarcell (PR#208)

  • Add a new test producing histograms, making use of the corresponding service in Gaudi
  • Improve comments and descriptions in tests

• 2024-07-15 jmcarcell (PR#201)

  • FunctionalAlgorithms: Use std::vector instead of std::map for input or output an arbitrary number of collections.
  • Add an inputLocations and outputLocations methods to be able to retrieve the locations set in the steering file.

• 2024-06-27 tmadlener (PR#205)

  • Remove some of the drift chamber datatypes again as they are going to disappear in EDM4hep with EDM4hep#333

• 2024-06-27 tmadlener (PR#204)

  • Remove the MCRecoTrackerHitPlaneAssociation since it has been / will be removed from EDM4hep in EDM4hep#331

• 2024-06-25 jmcarcell (PR#203)

  • Try to find podio 1.0 if the version found is not compatible

• 2024-06-24 jmcarcell (PR#202)

  • Don't use radiusOfInnermostHit from EDM4hep tracks

• 2024-06-18 jmcarcell (PR#200)

  • Use edm4hep::labels

• 2024-06-05 tmadlener (PR#199)

  • Remove the rootUtils.h header that has been copied from podio since it has become obsolete with #171

• 2024-06-05 tmadlener (PR#195)

  • Make MetaDataHandle::get throw an exception in case the value for the handle is not (yet) available.
  • Add MetaDataHandle::get(T defaultValue) overload to get a default value and no exception in case the value is not (yet) available.
  • Add MetaDataHandle::get_optional() to retrieve an optional that is engaged and holds the value if the handle already has a value available.
    • The optional is returned directly from the underlying Frame in case that is available (see AIDASoft/podio#580) or is constructed in place in case it is not yet available.

• 2024-05-29 jmcarcell (PR#197)

  • Remove unnecessary messages (IOSvc saying at which entry we are when reading a file and an error message when a cast doesn't work, which is foreseen and will always happen when a functional algorithm reads something generated by the "old" algorithms), one of them an error message that is not an error
