+/**
+ * \class AliHLTTrigger
+ * This is the base class from which all HLT trigger components should inherit.
+ *
+ * The class implements an AliHLTProcessor and implements specific functions
+ * for the implementation of a trigger component.
+ *
+ * Mandatory functions to be implemented by the child class
+ * - GetTriggerName() <br>
+ * must return a unique char string, serves also as component id
+ * - DoTrigger()
+ * this is the processing method. Can loop over all input blocks and
+ * calculate a trigger decision based on the input
+ * - Spawn()
+ * refer to AliHLTComponent::Spawn() for more details
+ *
+ * The class provides default methods for the following methods of the
+ * component interface. The methods can still be overloaded if needed:
+ * - AliHLTComponent::GetNumberOfInputBlocks()
+ * - AliHLTComponent::GetInputDataTypes()
+ * - AliHLTComponent::GetOutputDataType()
+ * - AliHLTComponent::GetOutputDataTypes()
+ * - AliHLTComponent::GetOutputDataSize()
+ *
+ * Within the DoTrigger() function, the component has access to the input
+ * data via:
+ * - AliHLTComponent::GetFirstInputObject()
+ * - AliHLTComponent::GetNextInputObject()
+ * - AliHLTComponent::GetFirstInputBlock()
+ * - AliHLTComponent::GetNextInputBlock()
+ * - GetEventData()
+ * - GetTriggerData()
+ *
+ * Further information about the event and the external trigger classes
+ * can be checked by the base class methods:
+ * - AliHLTComponent::EvaluateCTPTriggerClass()
+ * - AliHLTComponent::GetRunNo() const;
+ * - AliHLTComponent::GetRunType() const;
+ * - AliHLTComponent::GetEventId()
+ *
+ * Inside DoTrigger() the component can call TriggerEvent() to create a
+ * trigger. The trigger information is stored and propagated in an
+ * AliHLTTriggerDecision object.
+ *
+ * \ingroup alihlt_trigger_components
