/**
 * \class AliHLTGlobalTriggerComponent
 * This class applies the global HLT trigger to all trigger information produced
 * by components deriving from AliHLTTrigger.
 * Any information delivered by other components in data blocks that contain
 * TObjects can also be used for the trigger algorithm. In such cases a symbol
 * needs to be defined in the global trigger menu which can then be used inside
 * the trigger condition expressions.
 *
 * <h2>General properties:</h2>
 *
 * Component ID: \b HLTGlobalTrigger <br>
 * Library: \b libAliHLTTrigger.so   <br>
 * Input Data Types: ::kAliHLTAnyDataType <br>
 * Output Data Types: kAliHLTDataTypeGlobalTrigger and kAliHLTDataTypeReadoutList <br>
 *
 * <h2>Mandatory arguments:</h2>
 * None.
 *
 * <h2>Optional arguments:</h2>
 * <!-- NOTE: ignore the \li. <i> and </i>: it's just doxygen formatting -->
 * \li -config <i>filename</i> <br>
 *      Indicates the configuration macro file to use for the global HLT trigger menu.
 * \li -includepath <i>path</i> <br>
 *      Indicates the include path to use if the automatically generated code that
 *      implements the global HLT trigger requires non-standard includes.
 * \li -include <i>filename</i> <br>
 *      Indicates a file name that should be included in the automatically generated
 *      trigger implementation code.
 * \li -debug <br>
 *      If specified the automatically generated class will contain extra debugging
 *      code and the ACLiC system will have debugging compilation turned on.
 * \li -cint <br>
 *      Use CINT to interprete the generated global trigger instead of compiling it.
 *      This will also be the case if no compiler is available.
 * \li -usecode <i>filename</i> <i>classname</i> <br>
 *      Used to force the component to use an existing class for the global HLT trigger
 *      class implementation, with the name of <i>classname</i> and found in the file
 *      <i>filename</i>.
 * \li -skipctp <br>
 *      Indicates that the CTP data should not be added to the global HLT trigger decision.
 * \li -forward-input <br>
 *      Forward the input objects instead of adding them to the global HLT trigger decision.
 *      This will also add a short info on the input objects and decisions, like
 *      -include-input=short, to switch off -include-input=none can be placed after the
 *      parameter
 * \li -include-input[=none,short,objects,both] <br>
 *      Steer adding of input objects to the global HLT trigger decision.
 *      Options: none - include nothing, short - include a short TNames array,
 *               objects - include objects, by default on
 *               both - include both objects and short info
 * \li -process-all-events <br>
 *      Indicates that all events should be processed with the global trigger logic and
 *      not just the data events. The default is not to process just the data events.
 * \li -monitoring[=n] <br>
 *      enable monitoring trigger once every n seconds, enable for every event if
 *      parameter n is omitted
 * \li -dont-make-software-triggers <br>
 *      This option prevents the Common Data Header from being interpreted to generate
 *      software event input triggers for the trigger menu. Normally the following default
 *      triggers are available in the trigger menu:
 *        START_OF_DATA - start of data event.
 *        END_OF_DATA - end of data event.
 *        SOFTWARE - general software trigger.
 *        CALIBRATION - calibration trigger.
 *      With this option these will not be automatically generated by the global trigger.
 * \li -randomseed <i>number</i> <br>
 *      Specifies the random number seed to give to the internal random number generator.
 *      This is only useful for debugging to generate reproducible number sequences.
 *      The random numbers are only used if a trigger is scaled down using the scale down
 *      option in a trigger menu item. The seed is normally randomly chosen by default.
 *
 * <h2>Configuration:</h2>
 * Configured from CDB but can be overridden with the -config argument.
 *
 * <h2>Default CDB entries:</h2>
 * HLT/ConfigHLT/HLTGlobalTrigger - Contains the global trigger menu.
 *
 * <h2>Performance:</h2>
 * This is a linear function of the number of input triggers (AliHLTTrigger) that
 * need to be processed.
 * For a modest trigger menu configurations the processing time per event should
 * be on the order of a few milliseconds.
 *
 * <h2>Memory consumption:</h2>
 * Memory consumption is minimal. It should be on the order of 2 or 3 MBytes.
 *
 * <h2>Output size:</h2>
 * This will depend almost linearly on the number of intput triggers and summary
 * data objects used. Thus, for every trigger (AliHLTTrigger object) specified
 * in the trigger menu the output size will require about 1 kBytes.
 * Then for every summary data object (i.e. TObject symbol defined in the trigger
 * menu configuration) one will need an extra few kBytes, depending on the size
 * of the summary objects.
 * In total one would expect no more than a MByte output size for a large trigger
 * configuration and typically only a few kBytes for a small or optimised one.
