[Gate-users] Issues on voxelized dose calculations for a phantom

[Alex Vergara Gil]

Dear all

I think I have found a posible bug related to my issue (possible wrong
material handler in voxelized range translator, giving bad density
values and therefore bad dose calculations). In the file
GateGeometryVoxelRangeTranslator.cc, specifically in the function

G4String GateGeometryVoxelRangeTranslator::GetNextMaterial(G4bool doReset)
{
  static GateVoxelMaterialTranslationRangeVector::iterator anIterator
= m_voxelMaterialTranslation.begin();

  if (doReset)
    anIterator = m_voxelMaterialTranslation.begin();

  G4String aMaterial = ( anIterator!=m_voxelMaterialTranslation.end()
) ? anIterator->second : G4String("") ;
  if (aMaterial!="")
    anIterator++;

  return aMaterial;
}

Here you may see that the iterator is initialized every time the
function is called, I think it is better to put the iterator as a
variable, but you know better than me, so please could you explain why
it is used a static iterator here?

Regards
Alex
