Patch Release 1.0.2

We are happy to announce the second patch release for Allpix Squared version 1.0.2, which is available from the repository.

The following changes have been incorporated:

  • Module: GeometryBuilderGeant4 - solve bug which ignored the support layer material and defaulted to Epoxy. Now adds the specified material correctly. Also add new material “Lead”
  • Module: DetectorHistogrammer - correct axis labels of histograms
  • Module: CorryvreckanWriter - fix issue concerning ADC value and column/row assignment
  • Module: DefaultDigitizer - add nullptr initialization for histograms and fill final charge plots in correct units. ADC smearing histogram is now only created when ADC simulation is used.
  • Module: LCIOWriter - use getOutputPath() function to always store the output file in the correct location instead of the folder from which Allpix Squared is executed
  • Tools/ROOT macros - allow missing output trees, fixes #97
  • Core: path access - throw InvalidModuleAction if path of output file is not accessible or writable
  • Core: file extensions - dynamically add file extensions like .root so file names is configuration files can be given with or without extension
  • Manual: fix a few typos, change layout of tables and unify the typesetting of framework parameters (bold and monospace font)
  • Build Tools: correctly add the CXX_FLAGS from Geant4 - this fixes compilation issues with Geant4 multithreading enabled on Mac OS X platforms (see #92)
  • Continuous Integration: update dependencies following the upgrade of the Mac CI machines to OS X High Sierra 10.13
