28 * @class AliHLTOfflineDataSink
29 * The class implements a AliRoot data sink component base class.
30 * The child class must implement the functions:
31 * - @ref DoInit (optional)
32 * - @ref DoDeinit (optional)
34 * - @ref GetComponentID
35 * - @ref GetInputDataTypes
39 * @note This class is only used for the @ref alihlt_system.
41 * @note This class is very likely to be deprecated. According to the new
42 * reconstruction scheme, the esd is no longer filled by components in the
43 * reconstruction chain, but added to the HLTOUT data. The HLTOUT is
44 * processed during AliReconstruction at the end of the HLT event processing,
45 * literally during the FillESD method of the AliRoot reconstruction
46 * interface. The HLT module must implement HLTOUT handlers and provide
47 * those through the module agent.
