Detailed Description

ColourBase is the base class to be used to supply a Particle with information about its colour state.

This base class supplies information about the ColourLines to which the particle is connected. This should be sufficient for most uses. If any other info is required for a particle, it may be supplied by an object of a sub-class of ColourBase, the additional information would then have to be extracted by dynamically casting to the sub-class.

Member Function Documentation

virtual vector<tcColinePtr> ThePEG::ColourBase::antiColourLines ( ) const

virtual

Return the anti-colour lines to which this particle is connected.

(Always only one colour line for this base class.)

Reimplemented in ThePEG::MultiColour.

virtual vector<tcColinePtr> ThePEG::ColourBase::colourLines ( ) const

virtual

Return the colour lines to which this particle is connected.

(Always only one colour line for this base class.)

Reimplemented in ThePEG::MultiColour.

static void ThePEG::ColourBase::Init ( )

static

Standard Init function.

See also: Base::Init().

virtual void ThePEG::ColourBase::rebind ( const EventTranslationMap & trans )

virtual

Rebind to cloned objects.

When a ColourBase is cloned, a shallow copy is done first, then all ColourLines etc, are cloned, and finally this method is used to see to that the pointers in the cloned ColourBase points to the cloned ColourLines etc.

Reimplemented from ThePEG::EventInfoBase.
