RE: [ROOT] SIGSEGV in TLorentzVector addition !!

Hi,

CINT has a known defect in its optimization code that can cause the type of
effect you notice when you create object on the stack within a loop (and
maybe a few more nesting).

To work-around the problem, move the declaration: TLorentzVector tmp; //
Local declaration
outside of the loop.

Cheers,
Philippe.

    Thank you Pasha,

    I think it may be the best way, BUT if I do so, everything
is working FINE. I want to understand why in CINT session script isn't
interpreted well.
