[ROOT] Rebining of Profile Histo

Hi,

The TProfile histo is derivated from TH1D and so TH1.

But when I try to rebin it, I get :

root [19] test_prof
(const class TProfile*)0x88ae0e0
root [20] test_prof->Rebin()
Error in <TProfile::Rebin>: Operation valid on 1-D histograms only
(class TH1*)0x0

Is is a normal behavior ? Should it works ?
I use root 2.25/00 on linux i686.

Well, got that line in the code :

   if (fDimension > 1 || InheritsFrom("TProfile")) {
      Error("Rebin", "Operation valid on 1-D histograms only");

(in the TH1::Rebin method)

But I dont see what prevent a TProfile to be rebined the same way as any
1D histo... Did I miss something ?

	Yannick
