/**
* @defgroup alihlt_component Component handling of the HLT module
- * This section describes the the component handling for the HLT module.
+ * This section describes the the component base classes and handling for
+ * the HLT module.
+ *
+ * @section alihlt_component_intro General remarks
+ * HLT analysis is organized in so called components. Each component can
+ * subscribe to the data produced by other components and can from the
+ * analysis publish new data for the subsequent components. Only the
+ * input data blocks and entries from CDB are available for the analysis.
+ *
+ * @section alihlt_component_implementation Component implementation
+ * AliHLTComponent provides the interface for all components, see there
+ * for details. Three types are provided:
+ * - AliHLTProcessor
+ * - AliHLTDataSource
+ * - AliHLTDataSink
+ *
+ * The two last represent data sinks and sources for the HLT integration
+ * into AliRoot. When running only, only the processors are relevant,
+ * sources and sinks are provided by the HLT PubSub framework. Please check
+ * AliHLTComponent for detailed description.
+ *
+ * @section alihlt_component_registration Component registration
+ * Components need to be registered with the AliHLTComponentHandler in
+ * order to be used with the system. Registration is purely done from the
+ * module library. Two methods are possible:
+ * - the module library implements an AliHLTModuleAgent and overloads the
+ * AliHLTModuleAgent::RegisterComponents() function
+ * - in the implementation file, one object is defined. The global object is
+ * automatically instantiated when the library is loaded for the first
+ * time and the object is used for registration.
+ *
+ * In both cases, the library must be loaded via the method
+ * <pre>
+ * AliHLTComponentHandler::LoadComponentLibraries()
+ * </pre>
+ * For the global object approach it is important that the library is
+ * not loaded elsewhere before (e.g. a gSystem->Load operation in your
+ * rootlogon.C).

* GetOutputDataSize.
* member functions for those environment dependend functions. The member
* functions are used by the component implementation and are re-mapped to the
* corresponding functions.
+ *
* @section alihltcomponent-interfaces Component interfaces
* Each of the 3 standard component base classes AliHLTProcessor, AliHLTDataSource
* and AliHLTDataSink provides it's own processing method (see
* @ref alihltcomponent-type-std), which splits into a high and a low-level
* method. For the @ref alihltcomponent-low-level-interface, all parameters are
- * shipped as function arguments, the component is supposed to dump data to the
+ * shipped as function arguments, the component is supposed to write data to the
* output buffer and handle all block descriptors.
* The @ref alihltcomponent-high-level-interface is the standard processing
* method and will be used whenever the low-level method is not overloaded.
*
+ * In both cases it is necessary to calculate/estimate the size of the output
+ * buffer before the processing. Output buffers can never be allocated inside
+ * the component because of the push-architecture of the HLT.
+ * For that reason the @ref GetOutputDataSize function should return a rough
+ * estimatian of the data to be produced by the component. The component is
+ * responsible for checking the memory size and must return -ENOSPC if the
+ * available buffer is too small, and update the estimator respectively. The
+ * framework will allocate a buffer of appropriate size and call the processing
+ * again.
+ *
+ * @subsection alihltcomponent-error-codes Return values/Error codes
+ * For return codes, the following scheme applies:
+ * - The data processing methods have to indicate error conditions by a negative
+ * error/return code. Preferably the system error codes are used like
+ * e.g. -EINVAL. This requires to include the header
+ * <pre>
+ * \#include \<cerrno\>
+ * </pre>
+ * This schema aplies to all interface functions of the component base class.
+ * For data processing it is as follows:
+ * - If no suitable input block could be found (e.g. no clusters for the TPC cluster
+ * finder) set size to 0, block list is empty, return 0
+ * - If no ususable or significant signal could be found in the input blocks
+ * return an empty output block, set size accordingly, and return 0. An empty output
+ * block here could be either a real empty one of size 0 (in which case size also
+ * would have to be set to zero) or a block filled with just the minimum necessary
+ * accounting/meta-structures. E.g. in the TPC
+ *
* @subsection alihltcomponent-high-level-interface High-level interface
* The high-level component interface provides functionality to exchange ROOT
* structures between components. In contrast to the
* - @ref AliHLTDataSource::GetEvent
* - @ref AliHLTDataSink::DumpEvent
*
- *
+ * The base class passes all relevant parameters for data access directly on to the
+ * component. Input blocks can be accessed by means of the array <tt> blocks </tt>.
+ * Output data are written directly to shared memory provided by the pointer
+ * <tt> outputPtr </tt> and output block descriptors are inserted directly to the
+ * list <tt> outputBlocks </tt>.
+ *
+ * \b NOTE: The high-level input data access methods can be used also from the low
+ * level interface. Also the PushBack functions can be used BUT ONLY if no data is
+ * written to the output buffer and no data block descriptors are inserted into the
+ * output block list.
+ *
+ * @section alihltcomponent-initialization Component initialization and configuration
+ * The component interface provides two optional methods for component initialization
+ * and configuration. The @ref DoInit function is called once before the processing.
+ * During the event processing, a special event can trigger a reconfiguration and the
+ * @ref Reconfigure method is called. There are three possible options of initialization
+ * and configuration:
+ * - default values: set directly in the source code
+ * - OCDB objects: all necessary information must be loaded from OCDB objects. The
+ * Offline Conditions Data Base stores objects specifically valid for individual runs
+ * or run ranges.
+ * - Component arguments: can be specified for every component in the chain
+ * configuration. The arguments can be used to override specific parameters of the
+ * component.
+ *
+ * As a general rule, the three options should be processed in that sequence, i.e
+ * default parameters might be overridden by OCDB configuration, and the latter one
+ * by component arguments.
+ *
+ * @subsection alihltcomponent-initialization-arguments Component arguments
+ * In normal operation, components are supposed to run without any additional argument,
+ * however such arguments can be useful for testing and debugging. The idea follows
+ * the format of command line arguments. A keyword is indicated by a dash and an
+ * optional argument might follow, e.g.:
+ * <pre>
+ * -argument1 0.5 -argument2
+ * </pre>
+ * In this case argument1 requires an additional parameter whereas argument2 does not.
+ * The arguments will be provided as an array of separated arguments.
+ *
+ * Component arguments can be classified into initialization arguments and configuration
+ * arguments. The latter are applicable for both the @ref DoInit and @ref Reconfigure
+ * method whereas initialization arguments are not applicable after DoInit.
+ *
+ * @subsection alihltcomponent-initialization-ocdb OCDB objects
+ * OCDB objects are ROOT <tt>TObjects</tt> and can be of any type. This is in particular
+ * useful for complex parameter sets. However in most cases, a simple approach of human
+ * readable command line arguments is appropriate. Such a string can be simply stored
+ * in a TObjString (take note that the TString does not derive from TObject). The
+ * same arguments as for the command line can be used. Take note that in the TObjString
+ * all arguments are separated by blanks, instead of being in an array of separate
+ * strings.
+ *
+ * The base class provides two functions regarding OCDB objects:
+ * - LoadAndExtractOCDBObject() loads the OCDB entry for the specified path and extracts
+ * the TObject from it. An optional key allows to access
+ * a TObject within a TMap
+ * - ConfigureFromCDBTObjString() can load a number of OCDB objects and calls the
+ * argument parsing ConfigureFromArgumentString
+ *
+ *
+ * @subsection alihltcomponent-initialization-sequence Initialization sequence
+ * Using the approach of <tt>TObjString</tt>-type configuration objects allows to treat
+ * configuration from both @ref DoInit and @ref Reconfigure in the same way.
+ *
+ * The base class provides the function ConfigureFromArgumentString() which loops over
+ * all arguments and calls the child's method ScanConfigurationArgument(). Here the
+ * actual treatment of the argument and its parameters needs to be implemented.
+ * ConfigureFromArgumentString() can treat both arrays of arguments and arguments in
+ * one single string separated by blanks. The two options can be mixed.
+ *
+ * A second base class function ConfigureFromCDBTObjString() allows to configure
+ * directly from a number of OCDB objects. This requires the entries to be of
+ * type TObjString and the child implementation of ScanConfigurationArgument().
+ * The object can also be of type TMap with TObjStrings as key-value pairs. The
+ * key identifier can be chosen by the component implementation. Normally it will
+ * be the run type ("p","A-A", "p-A", ...) or e.g. the trigger code secified by
+ * ECS.
+ *
* @section alihltcomponent-handling Component handling
* The handling of HLT analysis components is carried out by the AliHLTComponentHandler.
* Component are registered automatically at load-time of the component shared library
* under the following suppositions:
* - the component library has to be loaded from the AliHLTComponentHandler using the
* @ref AliHLTComponentHandler::LoadLibrary method.
+ * - the library defines an AliHLTModuleAgent which registers all components.
+ * See AliHLTModuleAgent::RegisterComponents <br>
+ * or <br>
* - the component implementation defines one global object (which is generated
- * when the library is loaded)
+ * when the library is loaded) <br>
*
* @subsection alihltcomponent-design-rules General design considerations
* The analysis code should be implemented in one or more destict class(es). A
*
* Further rules:
* - avoid big static arrays in the component, allocate the memory at runtime
+ * - allocate all kind of complex data members (like classes, ROOT TObjects of
+ * any kind) dynamically in DoInit and clean up in DoDeinit
+ *
+ * @section alihlt_component_arguments Default arguments
+ * The component base class provides some default arguments:
+ * <!-- NOTE: ignore the \li. <i> and </i>: it's just doxygen formatting -->
+ * \li -loglevel=level <br>
+ * \li -object-compression=level <br>
+ * compression level for ROOT objects, default is defined by
+ * @ref ALIHLTCOMPONENT_DEFAULT_OBJECT_COMPRESSION
+ * \li -pushback-period=period <br>
+ * scale down for PushBack of objects, shipped only for one event
+ * every <i>period</i> seconds
+ * \li -event-module=number <br>
+ * This option reduces the event processing rate by processing only n'th event
+ * based on the modulo number <i>number</i>. The scale down should be about
+ * 1/<i>number</i>, where <i>number</i> is a positive integer.
