getDetectorName()

virtual std::string simcore::geo::Parser::getDetectorName ( )

pure virtual

Get the name of the parsed detector.

This name is typically extracted from the file containing the detector description.

Returns

The name of the detector.

Implemented in simcore::geo::GDMLParser.

GetWorldVolume()

virtual G4VPhysicalVolume * simcore::geo::Parser::GetWorldVolume ( )

pure virtual

Pure virtual method used to retrieve the G4VPhysicalVolume associated with the most top-level (world) volume.

Returns

The world volume.

Implemented in simcore::geo::GDMLParser.

Referenced by simcore::DetectorConstruction::Construct().

read()

virtual void simcore::geo::Parser::read ( )

pure virtual

Parse the detector geometry and read it into memory.

Implemented in simcore::geo::GDMLParser.
