41/**
42 * A light weight class for reading the contents of an internal dimuon HLT
43 * data block.
44 * Suppose we are given a pointer 'buffer' to the buffer where a data block is
45 * stored in memory and the size of the data block is given by the variable 'size'.
46 * The data block is of type 'block_type' and the data block entries are of type
47 * 'entries_type'. The data block can be accessed in the following way:
48 *
49 * void* buffer = somebuffer;
50 * AliHLTUInt32_t size = somebuffer_size;
51 *
52 * // Initialise the data block reader.
53 * AliHLTMUONDataBlockReader<block_type, entries_type> block(buffer, size);
54 *
55 * // Check that the buffer has the expected size.
56 * if (not block.BufferSizeOk())
57 * {
58 * // handle error...
59 * }
60 *
61 * // Find the number of entries in the data block.
62 * AliHLTUInt32_t nentries = block.Nentries();
63 *
64 * // Loop over all entries in the data block.
65 * for (AliHLTUInt32_t i = 0; i < nentries; i++)
66 * {
67 * const entries_type& entry = block[i];
68 * // Do something with the entry...
69 * }
