Re: FLUGG crash

Hi Ercan
the problem is in one of the G4 classes, the G4Pow, that causes an
overflow by calculationg a huge factorial.

The error has been corrected in Geant4 9.5 : from the release notes :

"Added protection in G4Pow::powN() method for high exponent values.
Reduced vector for factorial from 512 to 170 (result should be below
"DBL_MAX). Fixed computation of log(factorial)"

Solutions:
- wait a few days so that I check that flugg works with Geant4 9.5
- downgrade to Geant4 9.4.p03 where G4Pow was not used
- comment out one line in
   FLUGG/source/global/management/src/G4Pow.cc :
   it is enough to comment the line
        f *= x;

Ciao
Paola
