19/// \class ROOT::TTreeProcessorMP
20/// \ingroup Parallelism
21/// \brief This class provides an interface to process a TTree dataset
22/// in parallel with multi-process technology
23///
24/// ###ROOT::TTreeProcessorMP::Process
25/// The possible usages of the Process method are the following:\n
26/// * Process(<dataset>, F func, const std::string& treeName, ULong64_t nToProcess):
27/// func is executed nToProcess times with argument a TTreeReader&, initialized for
28/// the TTree with name treeName, from the dataset <dataset>. The dataset can be
29/// expressed as:
30/// const std::string& fileName -> single file name
31/// const std::vector<std::string>& fileNames -> vector of file names
32/// TFileCollection& files -> collection of TFileInfo objects
33/// TChain& files -> TChain with the file paths
34/// TTree& tree -> Reference to an existing TTree object
35///
36/// For legacy, the following signature is also supported:
37/// * Process(<dataset>, TSelector& selector, const std::string& treeName, ULong64_t nToProcess):
38/// where selector is a TSelector derived class describing the analysis and the other arguments
39/// have the same meaning as above.
40///
41/// For either set of signatures, the processing function is executed as many times as
42/// needed by a pool of fNWorkers workers; the number of workers can be passed to the constructor
43/// or set via SetNWorkers. It defaults to the number of cores.\n
44/// A collection containing the result of each execution is returned.\n
45/// **Note:** the user is responsible for the deletion of any object that might
46/// be created upon execution of func, returned objects included: ROOT::TTreeProcessorMP never
47/// deletes what it returns, it simply forgets it.\n
48/// **Note:** that the usage of ROOT::TTreeProcessorMP::Process is indicated only when the task to be
49/// executed takes more than a few seconds, otherwise the overhead introduced
50/// by Process will outrun the benefits of parallel execution on most machines.
51///
52/// \param func
53/// \parblock
54/// a lambda expression, an std::function, a loaded macro, a
55/// functor class or a function that takes zero arguments (for the first signature)
56/// or one (for the second signature).
57/// \endparblock
58/// \param args
59/// \parblock
60/// a standard container (vector, list, deque), an initializer list
61/// or a pointer to a TCollection (TList*, TObjArray*, ...).
62/// \endparblock
63/// **Note:** the version of ROOT::TTreeProcessorMP::Process that takes a TFileCollection* as argument incurs
64/// in the overhead of copying data from the TCollection to an STL container. Only
65/// use it when absolutely necessary.\n
66/// **Note:** in cases where the function to be executed takes more than
67/// zero/one argument but all are fixed except zero/one, the function can be wrapped
68/// in a lambda or via std::bind to give it the right signature.\n
69/// **Note:** the user should take care of initializing random seeds differently in each
70/// process (e.g. using the process id in the seed). Otherwise several parallel executions
71/// might generate the same sequence of pseudo-random numbers.
72///
73/// #### Return value:
74/// Methods taking 'F func' return the return type of F.
75/// Methods taking a TSelector return a 'TList *' with the selector output list; the output list
76/// content is owned by the caller.
77///
78/// #### Examples:
79///
80/// See tutorials/multicore/mp102_readNtuplesFillHistosAndFit.C and tutorials/multicore/mp103__processSelector.C .
