PandoraPFA for IDEA-LAr

[kjvbrt]

Attempting to run PandoraPFA inside DDMarlinPandora inside k4MarlinWrapper with the following steering instructions:

from Configurables import MarlinProcessorWrapper

pandora = MarlinProcessorWrapper('DDMarlinPandora')
pandora.OutputLevel = DEBUG
pandora.ProcessorType = 'DDPandoraPFANewProcessor'
pandora.Parameters = {
    'Verbosity': ['WARNING'],
    'PandoraSettingsXmlFile': ['/some/path'],
    'CreateGaps': [False],
    'ECalCaloHitCollections': ['ECalBarrelCells']
}
ApplicationMgr().TopAlg += [pandora]

results in the following error:

[ ERROR "DDMarlinPandora"] Failed to initialize marlin pandora: std exception  getExtension: selection is not unique (or empty)  includeFlag: DetType( 0x812) : CALORIMETER, BARREL, ELECTROMAGNETIC,  excludeFlag: DetType( 0x20020) : FORWARD, AUXILIARY,  --- found detectors : 

Full steering macro is in this gist and output log are in the logfile.txt.

@fdplacido's suggestion to add type_flags like here:
https://github.com/kjvbrt/FCCDetectors/tree/det_type
does not seems to change anything.

Hi @kjvbrt
Is the error message really still the same?

The next step is adding the extension that is expected
https://github.com/iLCSoft/lcgeo/blob/4a5b6bb293ce5526ed23d14a3b5157a31326caf8/detector/calorimeter/GenericCalBarrel_o1_v01_geo.cpp#L94-L98

and a lot more in the rest of that file.

To use the detector_type flags, this XML file to define the flag IDs has to be included like this:
