Member Function Documentation

◆ get()

static Config& LHAPDF::Config::get ( )
static

Get the global configuration object

The global config is populated by reading from lhapdf.conf if it is found in the search paths. It is a singleton, hence the 'get' accessor rather than a constructor.

Note
The LHAPDF system is responsible for deletion of the returned object. Do NOT delete it yourself!
