Re: Variable tree array in class

Dear Rene

Meanwhile I realized that variable length arrays are only allowed for simple types, so I have to store the trees in a TList fTrees.

However, my question regarding transient data members remains: Is it possible to write:
class MyClass: public TObject {

    protected:

       TString    fType;    //Type of tree
       Int_t      fNPars;   //! number of parameters
       Double_t  *fPars;    //! [fNPars] array of fNPars parameters

}
in order to prevent that fNPars and fPars are written to file when I write MyClass to file?

Thank you.
Christian
