Hi Andrea, I think you can do both but respecting different conditions. If you modify EcalHitPlots and do not commit it, no one will see it, so you can do whatever you want, but you must be sure you won't commit it by mistake and organize your own backup. It is not what I would recommend. If you create a new class and want to commit it, you can create it here: "src.main.java.org.lcsim.hps.users.acelentano", for me it is located in the java trunk, and there is a folder "users". I think this is the prefered solution because you can share it with other if needed. If it can help, when you create your own PlotsDriver without any option you can call it from the steering file this way: <driver name="YourDriverName"/> <driver name="YourDriverName" type="org.lcsim.hps.users.acelentano.PlotsDriver"> </driver> Hope it helps, --- Gabriel CHARLES Institut de Physique Nucléaire d'Orsay On Wed, 26 Feb 2014 12:22:39 +0100, Andrea Celentano wrote: > Dear all, > a stupid question about the "proper/standard/hps-defined/.." way to > proceed for the Ecal monitoring: > > - I see there is a class org.lcsim.hps.ecal.monitoring.EcalHitPlots > that implements (some) of the plots I'd like to add. > - Should I modify it, adding what I need > OR > -Should I create a new class, modify the steering file accordingly > (and eventually copying the pieces of code I need from EcalHitPlots)? > > Thanks > > Andrea > > > ######################################################################## > Use REPLY-ALL to reply to list > > To unsubscribe from the HPS-SOFTWARE list, click the following link: > https://listserv.slac.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=HPS-SOFTWARE&A=1 ######################################################################## Use REPLY-ALL to reply to list To unsubscribe from the HPS-SOFTWARE list, click the following link: https://listserv.slac.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=HPS-SOFTWARE&A=1
