[ROOT] Removing an obsolete class

Rooters,

We have in our code an obsolete class that we would like to remove from 
the structure. The only problem is that it is written out as a data 
member of an existing class.

We intend to simply remove this data member, so we are not worried 
about the loss of information. However, I need to make sure that the 
revised streamer can still read the old files, ideally skipping over 
the now-unused information. How can I tell the streamer to do this? (I 
don't believe that there is a valid streamerinfo for this class, if 
that makes a difference.)

Thanks,

George
