History

The necessity to have a ROOT based analyzer has been pushed initially by the 8Pi group at Triumf. In order to take off in that project, the 8Pi group got the support of a brillant summer student Brian (2002) whom in a few month was able to demonstrate the feasibility of the project. This application was based on ROOT and Qt and it is still in operation.

The following year, another summer student Greg King (2003) has been hired by the Triumf DAQ group to look at the possibility of developping the same type of historgram display application in a pure ROOT environment. The idea being to minimize the package dependency for this application. Taking the experience of the previous 8Pi ROOT Gui application, the Roody was born.

The goal of Roody is to provide a "simple tool" for histogram manipulation in online and offline operation. The online mode refering to a network connection to the Midas Data Acquisition system.
