Hi Rene,

as I understand yo, I have to put a TBranchObject in my class which points
to my subclass (analog to tree->Branch). I did this but this doesn't
work (a segmentation fault if I construct a TBranchObject. To test this I
used CINT:

CINT/ROOT C/C++ Interpreter version 5.14.10, Jul 20 1999
root [0] TH1F *f =  new TH1F();
root [1] TBranchObject *b = new TBranchObject("TH1F","TH1F",&f,64000,1,1);

 *** Break *** segmentation violation

Is this a normal behaviour (a mistake myself?) or a problem of the system?
(linux 2.2)

Thanks, Ingo
