[Gate-users] geant4 solids, interfile reader

[David Sarrut]

Dear Gergely,

I integrated the patches in the "develop" branch. You should be able to
look at the branch in the git source code (or in github here
<https://github.com/OpenGATE/Gate>, thanks to Mojca). I quickly look and
compile everything without problem. I only perform one quick simulation
test. Could you (Gergely, Seb, Albertine ... others) please try to run some
simulations benchmarks to test ? In particular, as I do not use interfile,
please check this file format. Moreover, Gergely, could I ask you to add a
(short) description of the new shapes you provide in the documentation ?
Please, ask for a login in the wiki documentation
<http://wiki.opengatecollaboration.org/index.php/Users_Guide_V7.0:Defining_a_geometry#Creating_a_volume>
and
directly modify the text.

Thanks again for this important and really appreciated contributions !

Sincerely,
David
