Detailed Description

View in nbviewer Open in SWAN Example of script showing how to create a ROOT file with subdirectories.

The script scans a given directory tree and recreates the same structure in the ROOT file. All source files of type .h,cxx,c,dat,py are imported as TMacro objects. See also the other tutorial readCode.C
