This PR fixes a critical bug that was observed with CMSSW:
AdePT was incorrectly constructed on the master thread, which had no SD codes attached. Therefore, the AdePT kernels ignored all hits in the SD code which were solely due to the energy deposition. Still, a very large number of hits was returned, as e.g., all first and last steps of particles were returned (and on the worker thread the SD code was available), thus the scoring happened by accident.
The problem was that the guard:
Did not fire, as the
GetMasterRunManageris a nullptr in CMSSW, despite being an MT application, due to their custom run manager. Therefore, the correct check is:G4Threading::IsMultithreadedApplication()A defensive check is added to warn when no SD code is attached at all.
Now, the total energy deposition in CMSSW looks much better:
