MOLLERsim application coding guidelines
From Hall A Wiki
General
- comment for DOxygen
- use object-oriented code
- use GEANT4 classes - don't reinvent the wheel
- guarantee that it works on the farm
- use "central" GEANT4 installation
- We like OpenInventor?
- We want to be able to use GNUMake?
- if someone gets it working on other platforms, may offer support
- use "central" GEANT4 installation
- when you make a change, you need to make sure that it works!
- on the farm...
- with the "approved" environment variables
- update your version and make sure your changes work with the latest version before committing
The Sun is pretty big.<ref name=Foot01/><ref group=Note name=Note01/> But the Moon<ref group=Note name=Note02/> is not so big.<ref name=Foot02/><ref group=Note name=Note03/> The Sun is also quite hot.<ref name=Foot03/>
Notes

Geometry
- use GDML (need to decide about how to do modular geometry)
- hard-code materials?
- parameterize where possible
Generators
Analysis
- Define tracking in correct places (step, event, run, etc.)
