       use of interlaced pedestal events impossible again. 
     - Use now the new class MTriggerPattern directly to recognize an 
       interlaced pedestal event.     



 2005/01/14 Thomas Bretz

     - fixed a typo in output

   * manalysis/MGeomApply.cc:
     - removed some old code already in comments
     - added possibility to switch off automatic processing (used
       if two different geometries around)

   * manalysis/MMultiDimDistCalc.cc, mhbase/MHMatrix.[h,cc],
     mranforest/MRanForestCalc.cc, mtools/MHSimulatedAnnealing.[h,cc],
     mtools/MSimulatedAnnealing.h:
     - added include of TVector because in newer root version it is 
       not included from TMatrix anymore

 2005/01/14 Abelardo Moralejo

   * mtemp/mpadova/macros/trainsubsample.C, RanForestDISP.C
     - added. Two macros used in the analysis of real wobble mode data.



 2005/01/14 Daniela Dorner

   * macros/sql/filldotrun.C
     - added new arehucas-verions and changed code accordingly



 2005/01/13 Abelardo Moralejo

       (wobble mode). Changed default extractor to 
       MExtractFixedWindowPeakSearch.



 2005/01/13 Raquel de los Reyes

   * callisto.rc
     - introduced several configuration lines 
       (format: "class".DataCheck: No) to allow callisto 
       to run with rawfiles. Necessary for the datacheck.



 2005/01/13 Markus Gaug

   * mcalib/MCalibColorSet.cc
     - fixed runs 45605-45609

   * msignal/MExtractor.h
     - take out the variable fHiLoLast from the streamer. Will be 
       initialized in the ReInit(), if needed

   * msignal/MExtractor.cc
     - Initialized fHiLoLast to 0. Otherwise, a second eventloop with 
       the same extractor may have that variable set to a certain 
       value, even if not desired. The ReInit() fixes fHiLoLast, if 
       different from 0.

   * mpedestal/MExtractPedestal.cc
   * mpedestal/MPedCalcPedRun.cc
   * mpedestal/MPedCalcFromLoGain.cc

   * mbase/MLog.cc:
     - unset DEBUG defined unintentionally

   * msignal/MExtractTimeAndChargeDigitalFilter.cc:
     - removed printing Weights in InitArrays, because otherwise
       the output of a full data calibration is totally crowded
       with numbers. Having the weights-file name on the display
       is perfectly enough.



 2005/01/12 Markus Gaug

   * mcalib/MCalibrationIntensityRelTimeCam.cc
     - added fit to improve averageing of the obtained results



 2005/01/12 Thomas Bretz

   * manalysis/MMatrixLoop.cc:
     - changed name to MRead because it now derives from MRead

   * mbase/MEvtLoop.[h,cc]:
     - implemented an option not to cascade the status display to the
       parameter list in PreProcess

   * mhflux/MHAlpha.cc:

       a correct camera display

   * mjobs/MJCalibrateSignal.cc:
     - fixed display of calibrated pedestal and pedestal rms
     - changed order of plots. Now all interpolated values 
       (means all calibrated values which are bad-pixel treated)
       are displayed behind the unsuitable pixels.

   * mjobs/MJ*.cc:
     - corrected all wrong %06d to %08d to fit the number of
       digits in run-numbers

       (usefull for studies)

   * manalysis/MMatrixLoop.[h,cc]:
     - derived from MRead
     - implemented some basic functions from MRead

       "FromExtractorRndm"

   * mtrigger/MTriggerPattern.h:
     - added Reset function

   * mtrigger/MTriggerPatternDecode.[h,cc]:
     - added using file format version number



 2005/01/11 Markus Gaug

   * mbadpixels/MBadPixelsPix.cc
     - updated documentation

   * mcalib/MCalibrationChargeCalc.cc
     - make pixels with deviating number of phes unreliable instead of 
       unsuitable (this was already thought so, but missed to modify
       at one place).

   * mhcalib/MHCalibrationCam.[h,cc]
     - add possible flag 'kInterlaced': default: kFALSE (like before)
     - added pointer to MRawEvtHeader to deny cosmics events in case
       of 'interlaced' flag is set. No changes for 'normal' calibration



 2005/01/10 Benjamin Riegel
 
   * mreport/MReportStarguider.cc, mreport/MReportStarguider.h
     - added two classes for implementing starguider-data 
 
   * mreport/ReportLinkDef.h
     - added class MReportStarguider to be linked:
       #pragma link C++ class MReportStarguider+;
     
   * mreport/Makefile
     - added file MReportStarguider.cc
   
   * merpp.cc
     - added two containers ( MReportStarguider, MTimeStarguider ) and
       added MReportStarguider to the list:
       w->AddContainer("MReportStarguider",  "Starguider");
       w->AddContainer("MTimeStarguider",    "Starguider");
       r->AddToList("MReportStarguider");
       
       
       
 2005/01/10 Markus Gaug

   * mcalib/MCalibColorSet.cc
     - return kFALSE for CL-run instead of kTRUE

   * mcalib/MCalibrationChargeCalc.cc
     - stop program in case that multiple colours are found in same file
       without intensity calibration

   * mbadpixels/MBadPixelsPix.h
     - added two new possible UnCalibrated_t flags for the hi-lo 
       calibration

          MParContainer::Class()->IgnoreTObjectStreamer();
       in main.

   * msignal/MExtractor.h
     - added Getter for fOffsetLoGain (was still missing)

   * mhcalib/MHCalibrationChargeCam.[h,cc]
     - remove pixels with histogram overflow only if their percentage 
       passes a certain limit (default: 0.5%). Before, every overflow 
       lead to an unsuitable pixel.

   * msignal/MExtractTimeAndChargeDigitalFilter.[h,cc]
     - implemented changes suggested by T.B. to speed up calculations
     - take fNameWeightsFile into the streamer, otherwise the Clone() 
       will always create an extractor with cosmic's weights. 
     - set fOffsetLoGain to a slighly higher value. The DF seems to 
       have a different offset since it uses different pulse shapes 
       and thus sightly different time definitions.



 2005/01/10 Thomas Bretz

   * mhvstime/MHVsTime.cc:
     - fixed a compiler error for gcc 2.95.3, see Mantis bug # 157

   * callisto.cc:
     - changed such, that the calculated pedestal is not random
       anymore
     - added code to calculate the pedestal also with randomization,
       but this code is for the moment commented out.

   * callisto.rc:
     - fixed naming of pedestal calculation

   * mbadpixels/MBadPixelsCalc.cc:
     - added a second check which compares the pedestal rms with
       the variance of the pedestal rms in the same sector

   * mjobs/MJCalibrateSignal.[h,cc]:
     - changed to calculate the pedestal from extractor without 
       randomization
     - added code to calculate the pedestal also with randomization,
       but this code is for the moment commented out.

   * mjobs/MJCalibration.cc:
     - made sure that pedcam always has the correct name
       (FIXME? Print a warning if it has the wrong name)

   * mjobs/MJPedestal.[h,cc]:
     - changed such, that it allows the calculation of pedestals
       in three different ways (fundamental, fromextractor, 
       fromextractorrndm)
     - therefor removed SetExtractorResolution and added
       + void SetExtractionFundamental()
       + void SetExtractionWithExtractorRndm()
       + void SetExtractionWithExtractor()

   * mjobs/MJStar.cc:
     - changed/fixed the input name of the MPedPhotCam used in the
       image cleaning

       with an error

   * mraw/MRawRunHeader.cc:
     - call a wrong file format version ERROR now

   * mhflux/MAlphaFitter.[h,cc]:
     - make sure that resetted values are returned if fit failed
     - set default scaling too kOffRegion

   * mhflux/MHAlpha.cc:
     - some small fixes to handling of MHAlphaOff

   * mhflux/MHFalseSource.[h,cc]:
     - implemented possible usage of MHFalsSourceOff for On-Off-Analysis
     - updated display accordingly
     - updated fit accordingly
     - removed catalog temporarily from plots until I found the
       reason for the strange crashes

   * mbadpixels/MBadPixelCalc.[h,cc]:
     - implemented the possibility to check the pedestal rms against the
       variance of the pedstal rms, too. The option is curretly switched
       off.

     - Added #include "TSystem.h", otherwise gSystem is not recognized
       in Mac OSX.

       badcalc.SetNamePedPhotCam



 2005/01/07 Thomas Bretz

   * mbadpixels/MBadPixelsCalc.[h,cc], macros/ONOFFAnalaysis.C:
     - replaced PedPhotContainer by PedPhotCam for consistency
   
   * mbase/MLog.[h,cc]:
     - return *this in Seperator()

   * mbase/MPrint.[h,cc]:
     - use new separator manipulator in PreProcess
     - fixed a type: separator instead of seperator

   * mfileio/MReadTree.[h,cc]:
     - added a check for branch->IsAutoDelete() in Notify()

   * mpedestal/MExtractPedestal.[h,cc]:
     - added new option 'fRandomCalculation' be used to switch on-/off-
       randomization in extractors, the default should be like before
     - added Process() calling Calc()

   * mpedestal/MPedCalcFromLoGain.[h,cc], mpedestal/MPedCalcPedRun.[h,cc]:
     - renamed Process() to Calc()

   * Makefile:
     - removed macros/calibration.C, which seems to have been
       unintantionally introduced.

   * manalysis/Makefile:
     - removed unintantionally introduced wrong include

   * msignal/MExtractTimeAndChargeDigitalFilter.cc:
     - a small acceleration discussed with Hendrik by replacing a
       counter in a loop by pointer arithmetics

   * mraw/MRawEvtPixelIter.cc:
     - fixed a bug in GetMaxIdxHiLoGain which caused the loop to
       read one byte behind the end of the array
     - fixed HasLoGain() which really did weired things, means accessing
       sometimes memory somewhere. This could theoretically result
       in assigning the wrong lo-gains to the wrong pixels.

   * mtrigger/MTriggerPattern.[h,cc], mtrigger/MTriggerPatternDecode.[h,cc],
     mtrigger/MFTriggerPattern.[h,cc]:

   * mcalib/MCalibrationBlindPix.cc, mcalib/MCalibrationChargeCalc.cc,
     mhcalib/MHCalibrationRelTimeCam.cc:
     - made some output lines fit into convinience window of 80 col

   * mhist/MHCamEvent.cc:
     - make sure that x-axis has correct title

   * msignal/MArrivalTimePix.cc:
     - init error to -1 which is a obviously non valid value
     - fixed IsValid() which gave wrong results

   * msignal/MExtractTimeAndCharge.cc, msignal/MExtractedSignalPix.cc:
     - made sure that LoGain is flagged non-valid if no lo-gain exists
     - push time back at the edge of the allowed limits if outside

   * mbase/MGList.[h,cc]:
     - introduced new functions Delete and DeletePictures
     - SetBit(kMustCleanup) in constructor. Otherwise it is not
       correctly removed from ListOfCleanups

       from the list

   * mbase/MParContainer.[h,cc]:
     - replaced return type of GetDescriptor by TString. The old version
       was terribly wrong! The returned memory wasn't removed as soon
       as the function returned.

   * mbase/MStatusDisplay.[h,cc]:
     - for security (thread safty) replaced all Form() by MString::Form()
     - implemented a more secure scheme of Closing (Clone()) this was
       a hint given by valgrind
     - set kMustCleanup for all new object in ClonePad not only kCanDelete
     - fixed some lines in pulldown-menus
     - add TPads to ListOfCleanups in ClonePad (workaround!)

   * mbase/MString.[h,cc]:
     - implemented a new static Form() function returning a copy of
       the result

   * mbase/MTask.[h,cc]:
     - replaced return type of GetDescriptor by TString. The old version
       was terribly wrong! The returned memory wasn't removed as soon
       as the function returned. 
     - Made GetDescriptor thread safe using MString::Form

   * mfileio/MWriteRootFile.cc:
     - Use GetDescriptor().Data() when using any kind of printf function

   * mhbase/MFillH.cc:
     - replaced string concatenation in all constructors by a Form 
       (also suggested by valgrind)

   * mhcalib/MHCalibrationRelTimeCam.cc:
     - made some output fit into 80col boundary

       Where they behave uncommon new code for the new case has been added.

   * mfileio/MWriteRootFile.[h,cc]:
     - enhanced functionality to be able to write a TTree into memory
