Detailed Description

class allpix::GeometryBuilderGeant4Module;

Module to construct the Geant4 geometry from the internal geometry.

Creates the world from the information available from the GeometryManager. Then continues with constructing every detector, building it from the internal detector model. The geometry that is eventually constructed is used to simulate the charge deposition in the DepositionGeant4Module.
