External Package Changes

artdaq v1_12_02

New features:

  • Changes were made to CMakeLists.txt files, setup_for_development, and product_deps to keep up with the latest cetbuildtools version.
  • The Utilities classes (SimpleLookupPolicy and TimeUtils) were moved from the artdaq package into artdaq_core.
    • This was needed in order to split ds50daq into two packages (Issue #6192: Move the data format classes to a separate package so that darkart would not need to depend on ds50daq)
  • The RHandles and SHandles classes were modified as part of making the speed improvements in artdaq::Fragment.
    • This is part of Issue #4655: Possible performance enhancement to Fragment
  • The raw_event_queue_reader unit test has been re-enabled thanks to fixes from Chris to work with art v1_11_03.
  • Functionality was added to eh s_r_handles unit test as part of the fragment speedup.
