[Gate-users] Problem parameter alias - command not found

[David Larsson]

Hi again,


FYI: the solution to my previous question is quite simple. Using the following parameterization prompt:


>> Gate -a [outputname,SPECT_voxsource_time001] [ta,0] [tb,1] SPECT_quad_voxsource.mac


Gate won't load the second and third (and so on) parameters. The issue seems simply to be that you cannot use spaces between the different defined paramters (as defined in the Gate --help, or in the user guide). Thus, prompting the above correctly it should look like:


 >> Gate -a [outputname,SPECT_voxsource_time001][ta,0][tb,1] SPECT_quad_voxsource.mac


that is without any spacing between [par1,name1][par2,name2][...] etc.


Apologies if this only hold for my local compilation, but anyhow thought I'd share this.


/David

Dear Gaters,


I want to launch some parameterized simulations but even though I'm following the user guide instructions there seem to still be some issues with the callback. The parameterisation deals mainly with the output part of my macro defined as:


# OUTPUT
/gate/output/ascii/enable
/gate/output/ascii/setFileName     {outputname}
/gate/output/ascii/setOutFileHitsFlag 1
/gate/output/ascii/setOutFileSinglesFlag 0

/gate/application/setTimeSlice     1  s
/gate/application/setTimeStart     {ta} s
/gate/application/setTimeStop      {tb}  s


>From this, I have a command-line/shell script call on the form of:


>> Gate -a [outputname,SPECT_voxsource_time001] [ta,0] [tb,1] SPECT_quad_voxsource.mac

and so on. However, when running the above I get an error message indicating that


Alias <ta> not found -- command ignored

***** Illegal parameter (0) </gate/applications/setTimeStart {ta} s> ******


Does anyone who's familiar with parameterized macros know what I'm doing incorrectly? FYI I'm running Gate v_7.0 with the corresponding recommended versions Geant4/CLHEP, etc.


Thanks for your help,


Best regards,


David
