hcana - Hall C ROOT/C++ analyzer

hcana is an under-development tool to analyze data from the HMS, SHMS and SOS spectrometers in Hall C at JLab. It is being developed to replace the historical Hall C analyzer, ENGINE, which was written in Fortran. hcana will be the package used to analyze Hall C date in the 12 GeV era. hcana is being written in C++, using the CERN ROOT framework. hcana is an extension to the Hall A analyzer, PODD.

NOTE: In the process of retrieving the hcana source code, a copy of the Hall A PODD package will be downloaded. The version of PODD included has been slightly modified for use with hcana. For an official version of PODD, see the ROOT/C++ Analyzer for Hall A page.

Downloading

Instructions for downloading hcana can be found in the Hall C Wiki.

Compiling

hcana may be compiled with either make or scons. Switching between these two build systems make require some cleanup of dependency files, binary files and other autogenerated files.
