This is a cumulative Action item list from Hall-D software meetings. Items are added as a result of discussion at the bi-weekly software meetings and are marked off as they are completed.


August 15, 2008 Software

  1. Organize tracking meeting between Mark, Simon, and Dave next week (Mark, Simon, and David)
  2. Complete studies of CDC stereo/axial configuration to the point needed to finalize the endplate design. (David, Mark)
  3. Circulate proposal for software section of collaboration meeting and finalize schedule. (David)
  4. Inquire on mailing list as to whether there is a need to change the software meeting time with the new semester (David)



August 1, 2008 Software

  1. Add new items to coding conventions page (Mark)
    • All headers should have macros defined to protected from double inclusion[1]
    • Standard output should be directed to something we define (dout?) rather than cout to allow us to develop filters/handlers later
    • Exceptions should be thrown using a standard exception class



RTJ's talk at Oct. 2007 Collaboration Meeting

  1. Implement improved magnetic field(Richard, David)[2]
  2. Release the new reference geometry (Richard)[3]
  3. Incremental updates to geom v4 document (David)[4]
  4. Feedback on CDC changes material effects (Mihajlo)[5]
  5. Implement mag. field effects in FDC (Simon)
  6. Implement mag. field effects in FDC reconstruction (Simon)
  7. Implement new mirror geometry in hdds (Richard)[6]
  8. Implement and test new ideas in calorimetry (team)[7]



September 11,2007 Software

  1. Allow some type of anonymous checkouts from the repository without allowing anonymous check-ins.



Prior to September, 2007

  1. Move Action Items list to separate wiki page
  2. Add extended target vertex distribution to pythiagen(Benni)
  3. Remove read-only password for Wiki
  4. Complete "Version 4" Simulation geometry document. (David, Simon, Richard)[8]
  5. Put updated collaboration list in DocDB and commit list to repository (Zisis)
  6. Develop system for incorporating alternative b-fields in simulation (Richard and David)[9]
  7. Look at recent FDC geometry changes (Richard)
  8. Create an easy way to produce radiation length plots and document it (David)
  9. Review the digitization scheme(s) we have now and figure out how to make them more coherent (??)
  10. Remove "default" from calibration file directory path(David)
  11. Tie HDGeant and DANA constants to single source (David)[10]
  12. Output configuration parameters database from DANA (David)




  1. Added to coding conventions page Aug. 18, '08
  2. This was done with revision 2796 for the reconstruction on July 22, 2007 and with revision 3260 on Feb. 4, 2008 for the simulation
  3. This was completed in Jan. of 2008
  4. The original idea of exactly what this meant is lost. The last version of the GeamV4 document was posted in Dec. 2007. This item was closed on Aug. 19, 2008
  5. This was reported on at the January 25, 2008 Software meeting by Mihajlo
  6. The Cerenkov system has been de-scoped for a while now so this item is no longer relevant. Closed on Aug. 19, 2008.
  7. The original concept behind this has since been lost. Calorimetry development has and is continuing and so by virtue of that, this item was closed Aug. 19, 2008
  8. This was completed with GlueX-doc-853-v8 on Dec. 10, 2007
  9. This was completed with svn revision 3260 on Feb. 4, 2008
  10. This was completed with svn revision 3260 on Feb. 4, 2008
