Hello Alessandra,
You are incorrect in your assumption that " lcsim/trunk == hps_trunk "
Although it IS true that the lcsim dependencies are bundled in the
binary HPS jar files, the HPS detector-data directory has no default
executable class. It is just a repository for the detector descriptions.
You CAN create an LCDD file from a compact.xml file using the HPS jar file
by setting the classpath and running the converter class as follows from the
hps trunk directory:
java -cp distribution/target/hps-distribution-3.0.2-SNAPSHOT-bin.jar org.lcsim.geometry.compact.converter.Main
If you are going to be doing this a lot, or need cutting-edge functionality
then you should check out and build the lcsim trunk and follow the instructions
I pointed to earlier.
I will modify the HPS confluence page to mention this.
Norman

Hi Norman,
thank you for the fast reply.
Yes, unfortunately I still have an issue. Assuming that lcsim/trunk == hps_trunk upon checkout (am I wrong in this assumption? isn't lcsim coming bundled in the hps_trunk?), after compilation in hps_trunk I can find the file detector-data/target/hps-detector-data-3.0.2-SNAPSHOT.jar
that I suppose is the jar file I need. But when I run it, from hps_trunk, I always get the same unfriendly message:
$ java -jar ./detector-data/target/hps-detector-data-3.0.2-SNAPSHOT.jar
no main manifest attribute, in ./detector-data/target/hps-detector-data-3.0.2-SNAPSHOT.jar
same problem if I rum mvn in the detector-data directory. Am I missing something somewhere?
Also, the confluence page tells that the detectors/taglist.txt file needs ri be modified. Where is it? Is this instruction still valid?
Thanks, cheers
Alessandra
