4/// Merge only part of the content of a set of files.
5/// This macro demonstrates how to merge only a part of the content of a set
6/// of input files, specified via the interface.
7/// ~~~{.cpp}
8/// TFileMerger::AddObjectNames(const char *names)
9/// ~~~
10/// The method can be called several times to add object names, or using a single
11/// string with names separated by a blank. Directory names contained in the files
12/// to be merged are accepted.
13///
14/// Two modes are supported:
15/// 1. kOnlyListed: via <tt>TFileMerger::PartialMerge(kOnlyListed)</tt>
16/// This will merge only the objects in the files having the names in the
17/// specified list. If a folder is specified, its whole content will be merged
18///
19/// 2. kSkipListed: via <tt>TFileMerger::PartialMerge(kSkipListed)</tt>
20/// This will skip merging of specified objects. If a folder is specified, its
21/// whole content will be skipped.
22///
23/// Important note: the kOnlyListed and kSkipListed flags have to be bitwise OR-ed
24/// on top of the merging defaults: kAll | kIncremental (as in the example)
25///
26/// The files to be merged have the following structure:
27/// - hpx (TH1F)
28/// - hpxpy (TH2F)
29/// - hprof (TProfile)
30/// - ntuple (TNtuple)
31/// - folder (TDirectory)
32/// - hpx1 (TH1F)
33///
34/// The example first merges exclusively hprof and the content of "folder",
35/// producing the file exclusive.root, then merges all content but skipping
36/// hprof and the content of "folder". The result can be inspected in the
37/// browser.
