 * @file makeComponentConfigurationObject.C
 * @brief Creation of HLT component configuration objects in OCDB
 *
 * <pre>
 * Usage: aliroot -b -q makeComponentConfigurationObject.C'("path", "param", "uri", runmin, runmax)'
 * </pre>
 *
 * Create an OCDB entry with a TObjString containing param.
 * Many HLT components understand configuration strings containing
 * arguments and parameters just like the command line arguments.
 * This macro facilitates the creation of an appropriate object
 * from a parameter string.
 *
 * Parameters: <br>
 * - path           path of the entry within the OCDB
 * - param (opt)    string to be stored in the TObjSting, default empty
 * - uri   (opt)    the OCDB URI, default $ALICE_ROOT   
 * - runmin (opt)   default 0
 * - runmax (opt)   default 999999999
 *
 * Note: The configuration procedure of an HLT component is not
 * restricted to that scheme. The implementation is up to the
 * developer and more complex objects are possible.
