Detailed Description

Service providing information about the quality of channels.

This service provides only a simple interface. Experiments need to implement and configure their own service implementing this interface. The simplest implementation is provided in LArSoft: SimpleChannelStatusService.

Currently, the service provides interface for the following information:

goodness of the channel: good or bad (dead or unusable)
noisiness of the channel: good or noisy (or compromised in some way)
presence of the channel: connected to a wire or not

The use of this service replaces the deprecated ChannelFilter class. An algorithm that used to use ChannelFilter class can be updated. From:

 filter::ChannelFilter* chanFilt = new filter::ChannelFilter();

to

 art::ServiceHandle<lariov::ChannelStatusService const> chanFilt;

(include files CalibrationDBI/Interface/ChannelStatusService.h instead of Filters/ChannelFilter.h) or

 lariov::ChannelStatusProvider const& chanFilt
   = art::ServiceHandle<lariov::ChannelStatusService const>()
     ->GetProvider();

(include files CalibrationDBI/Interface/ChannelStatusService.h and CalibrationDBI/Interface/ChannelStatusProvider.h instead of Filters/ChannelFilter.h). The latter object can in principle be passed to algorithms that are not art-aware.
