class TPythia8: public TGenerator


TPythia8

TPythia is an interface class to C++ version of Pythia 8.1
event generators, written by T.Sjostrand.

The user is assumed to be familiar with the Pythia package.
This class includes only a basic interface to Pythia8. Because Pythia8 is
also written in C++, its functions/classes can be called directly from a
compiled C++ script.
To call Pythia functions not available in this interface a dictionary must
be generated.
see $ROOTSYS/tutorials/pythia/pythia8.C for an example of use from CINT.
