Hello,
Is is possible to have a class (say X) inherit TDirectory and still be accessible as its class type (X) with TDirectory functionality when written to a TFile? I'm finding that once I close and reopen the file, the Class X object is gone and only the TDirectory portion remains. How should I approach this problem?
// example
//___________________
class X : public TDirectory
{
public:
X() : TDirectory();
X(Text_t *name, Text_t *title) : TDirectory(name, title);
virtual ~X();
void Hi();
ClassDef(X,1);
}
//____________________
void X::Hi() { printf("hello to you too\n"); }
//___________________
