14// TGrid //
15// //
16// Abstract base class defining interface to common GRID services. //
17// //
18// To open a connection to a GRID use the static method Connect(). //
19// The argument of Connect() is of the form: //
20// <grid>[://<host>][:<port>], e.g. alien://alice.cern.ch //
21// Depending on the <grid> specified an appropriate plugin library //
22// will be loaded which will provide the real interface. //
23// //
24// Related classes are TGridResult. //

39/// The grid should be of the form: <grid>://<host>[:<port>],
40/// e.g.: alien://alice.cern.ch
41/// The uid is the username and pw the password that should be used for
42/// the connection. Depending on the <grid> the shared library (plugin)
43/// for the selected system will be loaded. When the connection could not
44/// be opened 0 is returned. For AliEn the supported options are:
45/// -domain=<domain name>
46/// -debug=<debug level from 1 to 10>
47/// Example: "-domain=cern.ch -debug=5"
