Description

In $ARTDAQ_DAQINTERFACE_DIR/simple_test_config/subconfigs, there are FHiCL documents meant to configure ToySimulators which don't send fragments. They contain the line:

generated_fragments_per_event: 0

...which is how to communicate to DAQInterface that it should expect a number of fragments other that "1" per event from a boardreader.

It also used to be the case that setting this parameter would actually cause artdaq-demo's ToySimulator to send as many fragments as were specified. However, with artdaq-demo commit 9de984abba56e0b80e72717783dc811f0bc47cd0 from November 30, 2018, this no longer appears to be the case. The nonsending boardreader FHiCL documents should be changed accordingly.
