// buildsequenceentries.C
// ======================
//
// to group the runs of one night into sequences, this marco:
//  - reads the runinformation of one night from the database
//  - group the runs into sets of following runs with the same conditions
//  - groups the runs in this sets to sequences such that each run belongs
//    to the nearest (in time) calibration run
//  - check if the runs with the same runtype have the same calibration script
//    and the same trigger tables
//  if sequence is okay:
//  - check if in the range of the runnumbers of this sequence other sequences
//    exist in the database
//  if there are no sequences, insert the new sequence, else:
//  - delete overlaping sequences
//  if there's only one sequence in the same runnumber range:
//  - check if the new and the old sequence are identical
//    if they are identical, do nothing, if not, delete the old sequence and
//    insert the new one
//
// remark: deleting sequences includes the following steps:
// - delete entries from the tables Sequences, SequenceProcessStatus,
//   Calibration and Star
// - updating the sequence number (fSequenceFirst) in the table RunData
// - remove the Sequence File, the calibrated data and the image files from
//   the disk
//
// the macro can be executed either for all nights or for one single night
// .x buildsequenceentries.C+( "datapath", "sequpath", Bool_t dummy=kTRUE)
// .x buildsequenceentries.C+( "night", "datapath", "sequpath")
//
// the Bool_t dummy:
//  kTRUE:  dummy-mode, i.e. nothing is inserted into the database, but the
//          commands, that would be executed are returned
//  kFALSE: the information is inserted into the database and the files of
//          removed sequences is deleted
// be careful with this option - for tests use always kTRUE
//
// TString datapath, TString sequpath:
//  datapath: path, where the processed data is stored in the datacenter
//  sequpath: path, where the sequence files are stored in the datacenter
// the datapath (standard: /magic/data/) and the sequencepath (standard:
// /magic/sequences) have to be given, that the sequence file, the
// calibrated data and the star files can be removed, when an old sequence
// has to be removed from the database
//
// If nothing failes 1 is returned. In the case of an error 2 and if
// there's no connection to the database 0 is returned.
// This is needed for the scripts that execute the macro.
