As a starting point, the overlay test (AllGammaOverlay) is run exactly like the system test AllGamma sample with the following exceptionsadditions:

  • default overlay job options are included,
    No Format
    #include "$OVERLAYROOT/src/MergeAlgs/Overlay.txt";
  • overlay XML input location is specified,
    No Format
    OverlayInputSvc.InputXmlFilePath = "path_to_Leon's_latest_overlay_files";
  • RootIo option to avoid memory leak,
    No Format
    RootIoSvc.RebuildIndex = false;
  • orbit inclination set, but not relevant for systests (thrown in detector coords)
    No Format
    FluxSvc.OrbitInclination = 25.8;

The overlay input files are selected by setting an environment variable.
The overlay event format changes a bit with the releases requiring updates to the file location, meaning the XML location and Overlay_path are currently updated by hand to match the desired GR version (this is fraught with peril and I have already screwed it up once). Here is what I am using, but I think there may be additional access options.
