class TFileMerger: public TObject


TFileMerger

This class provides file copy and merging services.

It can be used to copy files (not only ROOT files), using TFile or
any of its remote file access plugins. It is therefore usefull in
a Grid environment where the files might be accessable via Castor,
rfio, dcap, etc.
The merging interface allows files containing histograms and trees
to be merged, like the standalone hadd program.

Function documentation

TFileMerger(Bool_t isLocal)
 Create file merger object.
~TFileMerger()
 Cleanup.
void Reset()
 Reset merger file list.
Bool_t AddFile(const char* url)
 Add file to file merger.
Bool_t OutputFile(const char* url)
 Open merger output file.
void PrintFiles(Option_t* options)
 Print list of files being merged.
Bool_t Merge()
 Merge the files. If no output file was specified it will write into
 the file "FileMerger.root" in the working directory. Returns true
 on success, false in case of error.
Bool_t MergeRecursive(TDirectory* target, TList* sourcelist, Int_t isdir)
 Merge all objects in a directory
 NB. This function is a copy of the hadd function MergeROOTFile
TFileMerger(const TFileMerger&)
TFileMerger& operator=(const TFileMerger& )
const char * GetOutputFileName()
{ return fOutputFilename; }
TList * GetMergeList()
{ return fMergeList; }
Bool_t SetCWD(const char* )
--- file management interface
{ MayNotUse("SetCWD"); return kFALSE; }
const char * GetCWD()
{ MayNotUse("GetCWD"); return 0; }
void SetFastMethod(Bool_t fast = kTRUE)
{fFastMethod = fast;}
void SetNotrees(Bool_t notrees = kFALSE)
{fNoTrees = notrees;}
