  The setup of the regions is crucial for GFlash to work, because it applies to regions.
  For concrete detector constructors the proper regional setting are mandatory, but do not affect
  this implementation.

* 2022-07-12 Markus Frank ([PR#927](https://github.com/aidasoft/DD4hep/pull/927))
  Easy possibility to store condition payloads as std::any.
  - Use of specialized handle class `dd4hep::ConditionAny` to support the functionality.
    The payload is automatically bound to an object of type std::any.
    Example code of constructor and how to access data:
     ```
    /// Emplacement construction
    std::vector<int> value;
    ... // fill data
    ConditionAny c2("name", "type", std::move(value));
  
    /// Construct conditions object with empty std::any	 
    ConditionAny c2("name", "type");
    /// Assign data (empty vector<int>) to the payload:
    c2.get() = vector<int>();
  
    /// Access data:
    vector<int>& data = c2.as<vector<int> >();
       ```
     as a corollary to this approach these conditions can only be stored and retrieved from ROOT storage 
     if the requirement for ROOT are satisfied. Otherwise no other restrictions are imposed. 
     The corresponding grammar instance is part of the library.
  
  - Add example to illustrate the functionality in example/conditions:
     o   examples/Conditions/src/ConditionAnyExampleObjects.cpp
     o   examples/Conditions/src/ConditionAnyExampleObjects.h
     o   plugin: examples/Conditions/src/ConditionAnyExample_populate.cpp
         Invocation:
  ```
     $> geoPluginRun  -destroy -plugin DD4hep_ConditionAnyExample_populate \
          -input ../../DD4hep/examples/AlignDet/compact/Telescope.xml -iovs 1
     ```
  
  - Plugin example to test basic functionality and verify proper assignment works
     o   examples/Conditions/src/Conditions_any_basic.cpp
         Invocation:
  ```
  $> geoPluginRun -destroy -volmgr -plugin DD4hep_Conditions_any_basic
  
  ```
  - Add 2 tests illustrating this functionality.

  The python file is only there to show that the G4 simulation does not get screwed.....
  Otherwise: to define properties, which do not participate in Geant4:
  ```
      <material name="Water">
        <D type="density" value="1.0" unit="g/cm3"/>
        <composite n="2" ref="H"/>
        <composite n="1" ref="O"/>
        <!-- Properties used by Geant4    -->
        <property name="RINDEX"        ref="RINDEX__0x123aff00"/>
        <property name="ABSLENGTH"     ref="ABSLENGTH__0x123aff00"/>
        <property name="FASTCOMPONENT" ref="FASTCOMPONENT__0x123aff00"/>
        <property name="SLOWCOMPONENT" ref="SLOWCOMPONENT__0x123aff00"/>
        <!-- Properties ignored by Geant4 -->
        <property name="Property_of_mine" ref="Water__0x123aff00"/>
        <constant name="BirksConstant"    ref="Birk__Water|Geant4-ignore"/>
        <!-- Constants  ignored by Geant4 -->
        <constant name="Constant_of_mine" ref="Water__Mine|Geant4-ignore"/>
      </material>
  ```
  where:
  ```
    <properties>
      <constant name="Birk__Water|Geant4-ignore" value="12.345678"/>
      <constant name="Water__Mine|Geant4-ignore" value="87.654321"/>
    </properties>
  ```
  and
  ```
      <matrix name= "Water__0x123aff00" option="Geant4-ignore" coldim="1" values="  
                2.034*eV 
                2.068*eV 
                2.103*eV 
                2.139*eV 
                2.177*eV 
                2.216*eV 
      "/>
    </properties>
  ```
  For non-const properties you have to set the option to "Geant4-ignore",
  otherwise you append the string to the name. The "ref" string in the material
  and the property must match.
  In the program you can then access the propertiers by name like this:
  ```
  Material material(...)
  double v = material->GetConstProperty("BirksConstant");
  TGDMLMatrix* m = material->GetProperty("Property_of_mine");
  ```
  like any other property. See for details:

# v01-20-01

* 2022-03-08 Markus FRANK ([PR#894](https://github.com/AIDASoft/DD4hep/pull/894))
  - The refactoring of namespaces (some years ago) left some factory name discrepancies in DDEve.
  This PR fixes them and re-enables the various views and projections.
  See issue https://github.com/AIDASoft/DD4hep/issues/893.
  - There are still some issues when loading a new file, which are not yet entirely understood.
  The suspicion is that the displayed 2D histograms somehow "reside" in the opened file and disappear
  when the file is closed. This however needs confirmation (and eventually fixing).

* 2022-03-04 Wouter Deconinck ([PR#892](https://github.com/AIDASoft/DD4hep/pull/892))

    Propagate additional setup properties for optical parameters in Geant4ScintillationPhysics.
    Other required changes were already included when preparing for the Geant4 beta release.
  - Allow for Geant4 builds without GDML.
    Enable conditional build if the Geant4 build does not support GDML

* 2021-12-16 Thomas Madlener ([PR#887](https://github.com/aidasoft/DD4hep/pull/887))
  - Rework the EDM4hep output action. The major reason is the renaming of the default types in AIDASoft/podio#205 and its effects on EDM4hep (key4hep/EDM4hep#132). These changes are:
    - Use `auto` wherever possible to remove any explicit mentioning of EDM4hep types.
    - Switch to range-based for-loops where possible
    - Keep an internal map of the collections to get rid of the `const_cast`s that were used before.
  - EDM4hep output: Make sure that the daughter relations are also set, because that is not done automatically in EDM4hep but is in LCIO.

* 2021-12-02 Wouter Deconinck ([PR#886](https://github.com/aidasoft/DD4hep/pull/886))
  - Add diquarks to default DDG4 rejectPDGs list

* 2021-11-22 Markus Frank ([PR#884](https://github.com/aidasoft/DD4hep/pull/884))
  - Issue https://github.com/AIDASoft/DD4hep/issues/881
    Next attempt for resolution. Avoid explicit use of the second argument in 
  ```
    G4int GetConstPropertyIndex(const G4String& key,
                                G4bool warning = false) const;
    // Get the constant property index from the key-name
  
    G4int GetPropertyIndex(const G4String& key, G4bool warning = false) const;
    // Get the property index by the key-name.
    ```
    Should satisfy existing and future snapshots of Geant4.

* 2021-11-03 Markus Frank ([PR#877](https://github.com/aidasoft/DD4hep/pull/877))
  - To not compromize client code with an enforced termination handler, the DD4hep termination handler
  moved to DDG4, where it actually is needed. In DDG4 the termination handler is activated when the main
  Geant4Kernel instance is created.
  Reasoning: Please see issue https://github.com/AIDASoft/DD4hep/issues/874 .
  - Throw an exception if clients ask a DetElement handle for a child by name if such a child is not present or the handle is invalid. This is the new default now. The old behaviour is kept with a second accessor for children by name, with an explicit statement that an exception is unwanted such as: child = DetElement::child("name", false)
  Please see issue: https://github.com/AIDASoft/DD4hep/issues/878.

  - In cmake tests use the macro ${Python_EXECUTABLE} to invoke the python interpreter rather than
    only `python`.
  - if  `FIND_PACKAGE(Python ${REQUIRE_PYTHON_VERSION} EXACT QUIET COMPONENTS Interpreter)`
    does not resolve the python executable fall back to `python${Python_VERSION_MAJOR}`.

* 2021-08-24 Markus FRANK ([PR#864](https://github.com/aidasoft/DD4hep/pull/864))
  - Support for multiple readouts or (G4VUserParallelWorld equivalent)
    Issue https://github.com/AIDASoft/DD4hep/issues/861
    Example: 
    examples/CLICSiD/compact/SiD_ECAL_Parallel_Readout.xml + 
    examples/CLICSiD/scripts/SiD_ECAL_Parallel_Readout.py
  
    For a given subdetector the sequence of sensitive actions can be enhanced
    having multiple sensitive actions where each one can have its own Readout
    definition. Hence each action can produce its own set of hits depending on the
    readout geometry (segmentation).
    in XML these readout structures must first be defined:
  ```
    <readouts>
      <readout name="EcalBarrelHits">
        <segmentation type="CartesianGridXY" grid_size_x="3.5" grid_size_y="3.5" />
        <id>system:8,barrel:3,module:4,layer:6,slice:5,x:32:-16,y:-16</id>
      </readout>        
  
      <readout name="EcalBarrelHits_0">
        <segmentation type="CartesianGridXY" grid_size_x="1" grid_size_y="1" />
        <id>system:8,barrel:3,module:4,layer:6,slice:5,x:32:-16,y:-16</id>
      </readout>        
   ....
    </readouts>
  
  ```
  and can then be assigned to the sensitive actions in the python setup:
  ```  det = str('EcalBarrel')
    typ = sid.geant4.sensitive_types['calorimeter']
    seq = DDG4.SensitiveSequence(sid.kernel, str('Geant4SensDetActionSequence/') + det)
    seq.enableUI()
    act = DDG4.SensitiveAction(sid.kernel, str(typ + '/EcalBarrelHandler'), det)
    act.enableUI()
    seq.add(act)
    # Add extra parallel readout action with readout EcalBarrelHits_0
    act = DDG4.SensitiveAction(sid.kernel, str(typ + '/EcalBarrelHandler_0'), det)
    act.ReadoutName = 'EcalBarrelHits_0'
    act.enableUI()
    seq.add(act)
    # Add extra parallel readout action with readout EcalBarrelHits_1
    act = DDG4.SensitiveAction(sid.kernel, str(typ + '/EcalBarrelHandler_1'), det)
    act.ReadoutName = 'EcalBarrelHits_1'
  ...
  ```

  - Using `ref="OtherVisName"` attribute with the `vis` tag, the visualization attribute is an extension of
  `"OtherVisName"` which is used to initialize the new vis attribute.
   - The new VisAttr inherits all the properties  of the ref and additional arguments override these values.
  
  Example where the only difference is the `alpha` value.
  
  ```
    <vis name="SiVertexBarrelModuleVis"

* 2021-01-08 Markus FRANK ([PR#772](https://github.com/AIDASoft/DD4hep/pull/772))
  - This is the first release prepared to use Geant4 units (mm,ns,MeV). This compilation mode can be steered by a cmake flag: `-DDD4HEP_USE_GEANT4_UNITS=ON`. Once set, the flag is automatically propagated to depending projects in the generated `DD4hepConfig.cmake`. It programs TGeo to use the Geant4 units system. The unit system is applied also to depending quantities like interaction lengths etc.
  - Update some tests and ensure compatibility in the checks/reference files for both unit system. There is one caveat: Mesh-creation of shapes depends to some degree on the unit system, because mesh points are  removed depending on a tolerance value which is the same for both systems.
  - A fix had to be applied to propagate the flag `DD4HEP_BUILD_DEBUG` to depending projects.  This flag affects some object layouts and hence MUST be applied also to depending projects.
  - Remove inclusions of `Plugins.h` from being processed by rootcling. Plugins.h uses `#include <any>`, which cannot be processed.

                           -print INFO -destroy -volmgr -load```
  2) New example to scan the geometry starting from a given position in a certain direction. Command line like for g4MaterialScan.
      The output shows then the pathes to the volumes traversed, the shape and the material of these volumes.
  
      `g4GeometryScan --compact=DDDetectors/compact/SiD.xml --position=0,0,0 --direction=0,1,0`

  - The CAD volume plugin allows to embed valumes and shapes originating from Computer Aided Design drawings using multiple formats as they are supported by the open asset importer library (http://assimp.org ). The plugin can be used whenever the `xml` fragment matches the following pattern:
      ```xml
      <XXX ref="file-name"  material="material-name">   
        <material name="material-name"/>  <!-- alternative: child or attr -->
   
        Envelope:  Use special envelop shape (default: assembly)
                   The envelope tag must match the expected pattern of the utility
                   dd4hep::xml::createStdVolume(Detector& desc, xml::Element e)
        <envelope name="volume-name" material="material-name">
          <shape name="shape-name" type="shape-type" args....>
          </shape>
        </envelope>
   
        Option 1:  No additional children. use default material 
                   and place all children in the origin of the envelope
   
        Option 2:  Volume with default material
        <volume name="vol-name"/>
   
        Option 3:  Volume with non-default material
        <volume name="vol-name" material="material-name"/>
   
        Option 4:  Volume with optional placement. No position = (0,0,0), No rotation = (0,0,0)
        <volume name="vol-name" material="material-name"/>
          <position x="0" y="0" z="5*cm"/>
          <rotation x="0" y="0" z="0.5*pi*rad"/>
        </volume>
   
        For sensitive volumes: add physical volume IDs:
        <volume name="vol-name" material="material-name"/>
          <physvolid name="layer" value="1"/>
          <physvolid name="slice" value="10"/>
        </volume>
       </XXX>

  - LcioEventReader: fix setting of color flow, second coordinate was never set

* 2020-02-25 Markus Frank ([PR#633](https://github.com/aidasoft/dd4hep/pull/633))
  - Added basic implementation for CAD interface to load shapes from CAD files. There is an open issue how to best embed the volume/shape loading from CAD files into the existing infrastructure. See for [presentation](https://indico.cern.ch/event/885083/contributions/3758180/attachments/1990793/3318984/2020-02-20-DD4hep-Tessellated-Shapes.pdf). This feature is only available if build against ROOT 6.22 or higher. 
  - DDCAD used the [assimp](https://github.com/assimp/assimp) librray to interprete the CAD files.
  - Simplify grammar instantiation. 
    - For grammars to be parsed with `boost::spirit` simply include
      `#include "DD4hep/detail/Grammar_parsed.h"`
    - For Grammars which should **not be parsed** with `boost::spirit` include
      `#include "DD4hep/detail/Grammar_unparsed.h"`
    - To instantiate the code and to register the instantiation call:
       `template <> dd4hep::Grammar<my-class>;`
    - If the Grammar is supposed to be registered call instead/in addition:
      `static auto s_registry = GrammarRegistry::pre_note<my-class>();`
     - All other macros are gone.

* 2020-01-09 Markus Frank ([PR#606](https://github.com/aidasoft/dd4hep/pull/606))
  - Resolves #605 
  - There was an apparent bug when cloning `DetElement` trees. Not only for the top element, which should receive a new ID, this top ID was propagated to all children. This was clearly wrong. The correct solution is: 
      - Top element gets a new ID
      - Children keep their ID
  - If a user wants to preserve the old functionality the flag `DetElement::PROPAGATE_PARENT_ID` must be set in the clone statement.

* 2019-12-18 Markus Frank ([PR#604](https://github.com/aidasoft/dd4hep/pull/604))
  - Allow to set ambient temperature and pressure for all materials.
