Class Description

                                                                      
 TGenerator                                                            
                                                                      
 Is an abstact base class, that defines the interface of ROOT and the 
 various event generators. Every event generator should inherit from  
 TGenerator or its subclasses.                                         
                                                                      
 Every class inherited from TGenerator knows already the interface to  
 the /HEPEVT/ common block. So in the event creation of the various   
 generators, the /HEPEVT/ common block should be filled               
 The ImportParticles method then parses the result from the event        
 generators into a TClonesArray of TParticle objects.                   
                                                                      


TGenerator(const char *name,const char *title): TNamed(name,title)
  Event generator default constructor


~TGenerator()
  Event generator default destructor


TObjArray* ImportParticles(Option_t *option)
  Default primary creation method. It reads the /HEPEVT/ common block which
  has been filled by the GenerateEvent method. If the event generator does
  not use the HEPEVT common block, This routine has to be overloaded by
  the subclasses.
  The default action is to store only the stable particles (ISTHEP = 1)
  This can be demanded explicitly by setting the option = "Final"
  If the option = "All", all the particles are stored.


Int_t ImportParticles(TClonesArray *particles, Option_t *option)
  Default primary creation method. It reads the /HEPEVT/ common block which
  has been filled by the GenerateEvent method. If the event generator does
  not use the HEPEVT common block, This routine has to be overloaded by
  the subclasses.
  The function loops on the generated particles and store them in
  the TClonesArray pointed by the argument particles.
  The default action is to store only the stable particles (ISTHEP = 1)
  This can be demanded explicitly by setting the option = "Final"
  If the option = "All", all the particles are stored.
