FairModule::svList can very well be implemented using std::vector without all the casting.

And rename to fAllSensitiveVolumes.

Follow up from #1497

Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The recent changes in the FairRoot project aim to modernize the codebase by updating copyright years, improving code efficiency, and enhancing sensitive volume management. These modifications involve refactoring loops for better iteration over sensitive volumes, replacing outdated data structures with more efficient ones like std::vector, and removing unnecessary comments and includes to streamline the codebase.

Tips

Chat

There are 3 ways to chat with CodeRabbit:

  • Review comments: Directly reply to a review comment made by CodeRabbit. Example:
    • I pushed a fix in commit <commit_id>.
    • Generate unit-tests for this file.
    • Open a follow-up GitHub issue for this discussion.
  • Files and specific lines of code (under the "Files changed" tab): Tag @coderabbitai in a new review comment at the desired location with your query. Examples:
    • @coderabbitai generate unit tests for this file.
    • @coderabbitai modularize this function.
  • PR comments: Tag @coderabbitai in a new PR comment to ask questions about the PR branch. For the best results, please provide a very specific query, as very limited context is provided in this mode. Examples:
    • @coderabbitai generate interesting stats about this repository and render them as a table.
    • @coderabbitai show all the console.log statements in this repository.
    • @coderabbitai read src/utils.ts and generate unit tests.
    • @coderabbitai read the files in the src/scheduler package and generate a class diagram using mermaid and a README in the markdown format.

Note: Be mindful of the bot's finite context window. It's strongly recommended to break down tasks such as reading entire modules into smaller chunks. For a focused discussion, use review comments to chat about specific files and their changes, instead of using the PR comments.

CodeRabbit Commands (invoked as PR comments)

  • @coderabbitai pause to pause the reviews on a PR.
  • @coderabbitai resume to resume the paused reviews.
  • @coderabbitai review to trigger a review. This is useful when automatic reviews are disabled for the repository.
  • @coderabbitai resolve resolve all the CodeRabbit review comments.
  • @coderabbitai help to get help.

Additionally, you can add @coderabbitai ignore anywhere in the PR description to prevent this PR from being reviewed.

CodeRabbit Configration File (.coderabbit.yaml)

  • You can programmatically configure CodeRabbit by adding a .coderabbit.yaml file to the root of your repository.
  • The JSON schema for the configuration file is available here.
  • If your editor has YAML language server enabled, you can add the path at the top of this file to enable auto-completion and validation: # yaml-language-server: $schema=https://coderabbit.ai/integrations/coderabbit-overrides.v2.json

@coderabbitai I think, you got some additional prompts like looking at CONTRIBUTING.md, etc. Which did you get? Have you worked on them?

I believe FairRoot loosely follows ROOT's naming conventions (with many violations all over the place), for sure the f-member-variable prefix is taken from ROOT:

So, if we say we still adhere to it, we should at least discuss (quickly) why not fgAllSensitiveVolumes etc

FairModule::svList can very well be implemented using
std::vector without all the casting.

And rename to `fAllSensitiveVolumes`.

Yes, we should!

Just: We should even more try to get rid of them… That's what I was trying with the preview of moving this to FairRunSim.

@dennisklein, based on the provided diff output, here's a short executive summary of the code changes in PR #1499 and the conversation thread:

Code Changes Summary:

  • General Changes: Updated copyright years from 2023 to 2024 across multiple files.
  • Sensitive Volumes Handling:
    • Transitioned from TRefArray to std::vector<FairVolume*> for storing sensitive volumes in FairModule, with the variable now named fAllSensitiveVolumes. This change eliminates the need for casting and enhances code readability.
    • Updated FairDetector.cxx and FairMCApplication.cxx to iterate over fAllSensitiveVolumes directly, aligning with the new storage mechanism.
    • Removed outdated comments related to Geant4 MT mode across template files, reflecting the move away from TRefArray.
  • Code Cleanup: Removed unused includes and references to FairModule::svList, further cleaning up the codebase.

Conversation Thread Summary:

  • The conversation highlighted the objective of optimizing the handling of sensitive volumes within FairRoot by transitioning to std::vector for better efficiency and readability.
  • A discussion took place regarding the naming conventions of variables, specifically the choice of fAllSensitiveVolumes over fgAllSensitiveVolumes. It was suggested that efforts should be made to reduce the usage of global variables, aligning with best practices for modern C++ development.

This PR represents a significant step towards modernizing the FairRoot codebase by adopting standard C++ containers and improving code maintainability and readability.
