Package cern.clhep Description

A Java port of CLHEP 1.4.0 (C++) - A Class Library for High Energy Physics; still quite incomplete - should probably find a way to take cern.clhep out of this distribution and merge cern.clhep with hep.lcd (SLAC).

Here are the CLHEP/C++ packages and their Java counterparts

C++ Package	Description	Java Counterpart
config	global #defines	not needed in Java
Alist	Templated list classes for storing pointers to objects.	`cern.colt.list` `java.util`
Combination	Combinatoric engine which, given lists of objects, successively generates a list of objects which form a unique combinations + Related things HepChooser HepCombiner HepLock HepLockable	`GenericPermuting` + ?
Geometry	HepPoint3D HepNormal3D HepVector3D HepPlane3D HepTransform3D	todo javax.vecmath - spec (Sun - Java 3D 1.2) javax.vecmath javadoc (Sun - Java 3D 1.2) hep.lcd (SLAC)
Hist	HepTuple HBookTuple HepTupleManager HBookFile HepHistogram HBookHistogram	Java Analysis Studio - SLAC hep.analysis (SLAC) `hep.aida` `hep.aida.ref` `hep.aida.bin`
Matrix	HepGenMatrix HepMatrix HepSymMatrix HepDiagMatrix HepVector	`cern.colt.matrix` `cern.colt.matrix.linalg` for small fixed matrices see "Geometry" above
Random	12 different random engines and 10 different random distributions	`cern.jet.random` `cern.jet.random.engine` `edu.cornell.lassp.houle.RngPack`
String	HepStrings Command Line Argument Parsing	`String` `StringBuffer` GNU cmd line parsing package ?
Units	Definitions of some frequently used physical constants and units SystemOfUnits.h PhysicalConstants.h	`Units` `PhysicalConstants`
Vector	Hep3Vector HepRotation HepLorentzVector HepLorentzRotation	todo hep.lcd (SLAC)
