Detailed Description

An object of the EventManipulator class may be assigned to a FullEventGenerator object.

The manipulate() method is called for each event generated, after the AnalysisHandlers have been called, and may manipulate the event in any way needed. The manipulator may alseo add StepHandlers to the EventHandler which produced the event. The manipulate() method returns an integer which should be zero if nothing was done to the event. If the EventHandler has steps left to do, these are performed, after which the AnalysisHandlers are called with the return value from the previous manipulate() call. Then manipulate is called again and the procedure is repeated until the EventHandler has no more steps to do.

◆ manipulate()

virtual int ThePEG::EventManipulator::manipulate ( tEHPtr  eh,
tEventPtr  event 
)
pure virtual

Manipulate an event and the event handler.

Parameters
ehthe EventHandler in charge of the generation.
eventthe Event to be manipulated.
Returns
zero if the event was not manipulated. Otherwise return an integer which will be given to the AnalysisHandlers of the current FullEventGenerator.
