Detailed Description

Helper class to determine if a TrajectoryStateOnSurface would cross a layer from the inside, or from the outside, if propagated with a propagator with a defined direction. No propagations performed, the result is very fast but not correct in case of a looping track that first goes outwards, then inwards, before crossing a layer.

static int LayerCrossingSide::endcapSide ( const TrajectoryStateOnSurface &  startingState, const Propagator &  prop  )

inlinestatic

returns 0 if endcap layer crossed from inside, ie from the side of the interation region, 1 if from outside
