Description

Support compilation and running of art using ROOT version 6. As requested by the art developers, this is intended as a top level ticket for this work, so properties/subtasks will be mapped according to their bookkeeping.

Items for discussion/subtasks could include (NB, I'm a newbie to ROOT6, so these are based on my limited understanding of changes)

  • Migration of Reflex to Rootcling based dictionaries, including schema evolution
  • Use of TClass API in place of Reflex API
  • Backward/Forward compatibility with ROOT5 files/dictionaries
  • Portability to Clang/Intel compilers (Issues #8011, #8227)

No doubt many others!
