4// It uses AliTestShuttle to simulate a full Shuttle process

6// The input data is created in the functions
7// CreateDCSAliasMap() creates input that would in the same way come from DCS
8// ReadDCSAliasMap() reads from a file
9// CreateInputFilesMap() creates a list of local files, that can be accessed by the shuttle

39 // The shuttle can read DCS data, if the preprocessor should be tested to process DCS data,
40 // some fake data has to be created.
41 //
42 // The "fake" input data can be taken using either (a) or (b):
43 // (a) data from a file: Use ReadDCSAliasMap()
44 // the format of the file is explained in ReadDCSAliasMap()
45 // To use it uncomment the following line:
46 //
47 //TMap* dcsAliasMap = ReadDCSAliasMap();
48 //
49 // (b) generated in this macro: Use CreateDCSAliasMap() and its documentation

59 // The shuttle can also process files that originate from DCS, DAQ and HLT.
60 // To test it, we provide some local files and locations where these would be found when
61 // the online machinery would be there.
62 // In real life this functions would be produces by the sub-detectors
63 // calibration programs in DCS, DAQ or HLT. These files can then be retrieved using the Shuttle.
64 //
65 // Files are added with the function AliTestShuttle::AddInputFile. The syntax is:
66 // AddInputFile(<system>, <detector>, <id>, <source>, <local-file>)
67 // In this example we add a file originating from the GDC with the id PEDESTALS
68 // Three files originating from different LDCs but with the same id are also added
