Description

Hello,

I have a suggestion which can be useful for the "DelphesProMC" program.
Is it possible to use it in a mode when input ProMC files are streamed from HepSim URL (http://atlaswww.hep.anl.gov/hepsim/)?

Example:

./DelphesProMC conf.conf output.root http://[some URL of HepSim]

the last argument is not an input file, but URL with multiple MC truth files.
The HepSim allows to work with input truth MC files in a streaming mode.

I can also implement this in python or bash, but maybe you will be interested in adding this directly to the same DelphesProMC. In this case I can explain how to do this

best wishes, Sergei

Hi Sergei,

I agree that it would be interesting to add this functionality to the C++ version of the Delphes' ProMC reader.

Does this solution require a HTTP library like, for example, libcurl?

If you remember, we already have a python implementation of this kind of functionality:

Regards,

Pavel
