Detector

This is a Python binding to the C++ class Mantid::Geometry::Detector.

bases: mantid.geometry.IDetector, mantid.geometry.ObjComponent

class mantid.geometry.Detector
getBoolParameter((Component)self, (str)pname[, (bool)recursive=True]) std_vector_bool

Return the description of current parameterized component

getDistance((IComponent)self, (IComponent)other) float :

Returns the distance, in metres, between this and the given component

getFullName((IComponent)self) str :

Returns full path name of component

getID((IDetector)self) int :

Returns the detector ID

getIntParameter((Component)self, (str)pname[, (bool)recursive=True]) std_vector_int
getName((IComponent)self) str :

Returns the name of the component

getNumberParameter((Component)self, (str)pname[, (bool)recursive=True]) std_vector_dbl
getParamDescription((Component)self, (str)pname[, (bool)recursive=True]) str
