MFT: fixed displaying of dead chips in digit maps

[tomas-herman]

• displaying of excluded (dead or masked) chips in the digit chip maps using the beautifier
• removal of redundant mNOfDigitsTime histogram that was causing messages in FLP infologgers (Object mNOfDigitsTime bigger than maximum allowed size and Object mNOfDigitsTime will not be uploaded)

BTW, perhaps using this method would also work for you? This uses the CCDB specified in qc.config.conditionDB.url:

QualityControl/Framework/include/QualityControl/UserCodeInterface.h

Line 59 in d459f97

T* retrieveConditionAny(std::string const& path, std::map<std::string, std::string> const& metadata = {}, long timestamp = -1);

If you are going to use this check in async processing, this might request a wrong object, not matching the time of data.

[tomas-herman]

Is there a standardised way of accessing CCDBB objects with the validity corresponding to the data?

[knopers8]

Not well exercised, but... UserCodeInterface::retrieveConditionAny would be the method to use and the timestamp could be mo->getValidity().getMin(), which now is still the time of creating an object, but soon it will be SOR in case of integrated plots and the cycle start in case of moving windows.

Thanks a lot for pointing us to this. I modified the code using the methods you suggested.
