def ROOTData.literal2root	(	literal,

Convert an hexadecimal string into a root-object. In case a
TStreamerInfo object is passed, this will be decoded by the
loadStreamerInfo function to handle it properly and a None object
will be returned. It is the responsibility of the user not the use
the returned object in this very case.

Decode a literal made of TStreamerInfo informations and load
streamers that are not part of the currently used version of
ROOT. The implementation is a back-to-bone and simplified version of
the one contained in the DQM GUI source code.
