Info& LHAPDF::getConfig

(

)

Get the global configuration object

The global config is populated by reading from lhapdf.conf if it is found in the search paths. It is a singleton, hence the 'get' rather than 'mk' function name.

Note

The LHAPDF system is responsible for deletion of the returned object. Do NOT delete it yourself! Hence the return by reference rather than pointer.

		int	member

PDFInfo* LHAPDF::mkPDFInfo

(

int

lhaid
