Abstract base class for constraints of kinematic fits.
This class defines the minimal functionality any constraint class must provide. First of all a constraint should know on with particles (or FitObject) it is applied. Where as for example a constraint on the total transvese momentum takes into account all particles in the event, an invariant mass constraint usually applies only to a subset of particles.
The particle list is implemented as a vector containing pointers to objects derived from ParticleFitObject and can be either set a whole (setFOList) or enlarged by adding a single ParticleFitObject (addToFOList).
From the four–momenta of all concerned fit objects the constraint has to be able to calculate its current value (getValue). Constraints should be formulated such that a value of zero corresponds to a perfectly fulfilled constraint.
In order to find a solution to the constrained minimisation problem, fit algorithms usually need the first order derivatives of the constraint with respect to the fit parameters. Since many constraints can be most easily expressed in terms of E, px, py, pz, the constraints supply their derivatives w.r.t. these parameters. If a FitObject uses a different parametrisation, it is its own task to provide the additional derivatives of E, px, py, pz w.r.t. the parameters of the FitObject. Thus it is easily possible to use FitObjects with different kinds of parametrisations under the same constraint. Some fit algorithms also need the second derivatives of the constraint, i.e. the NewtonFitter.
First and second order derivatives of each constraint can be added directly to the global covariance matrix containing the derivatives of all constraints w.r.t. to all parameters (add1stDerivativesToMatrix, add2ndDerivativesToMatrix). This requires the constraint to know its position in the overall list of constraints (globalNum).
