class HMdcParOraIo: public HDetParOraIo

 constructor
 sets the name of the I/O class "HMdcParIo"
 gets the pointer to the connection class

 destructor

 calls special read-function for each parameter container

 calls the appropriate write function for the container

 gets the run start of the actual run
 reads the detector setup from Oracle for the first run and returns the number
   of modules found
 returns -1, if the run is not found, or 0, if no modules are found for this run

 reads the id numbers of all modules defined for the actual run
 and stores them in array mdcIds
 returns the number of modules found
EXEC SQL BEGIN DECLARE SECTION;

 prints the id numbers of all modules

 reads the names (characterizes the position) of the motherboards
 and the maximum number of TDCs on each of it and fills the
 MdcRawStruct container

 reads the number of cells in each layer and fills the
 MdcGeomStruct container

 reads the version for the MdcLookupGeom container valid at the start time
   of the actual run
 if the version differs from the container version, the container must be
   reinitialized

 reads and fills the container "MdcLookupGeom" for mapping

 reads the version for the MboReadout container valid at the start time
   of the actual run
 if the version differs from the container version, the container must
   be reinitialized

 reads the lookup tables to connect the hardware adresses (sector, module,
 motherboard, tdc channel) with the event readout adresses uses in the
  unpacker

 reads the geometry of the MDC and fills the MdcGeomPar container

 reads the mdc_pos_id of all modules
EXEC SQL BEGIN DECLARE SECTION;

 reads the names of all layers in the geometry tables

 prints the modules initialized from Oracle
 will later go to the log file

 used for parameter containers with version management for modules
 reads the newest versions valid for the current event file
 returns -1, if no data found

 used for parameter containers with one version for all modules or planes
 reads the newest version valid for the current event file
 returns -1, if no data found

 reads the calibration parameters and fill the MdcCalParRaw container

 reads the calibration parameters and fill the MdcCal2ParSim container

 reads the cell efficiency parameters and fill the container

 reads the time cut parameters and fill the container

 reads the layer parameters and fill the container

 reads the close pair cut parameters and fill the container

 creates a new version for the parameters
 returns the new version

 creates a new version and writes the calibration parameters to Oracle

 creates a new version and writes the cell effficiency parameters to Oracle

 creates a new version and writes the TimeCut parameters to Oracle

 creates a new version and writes the calibration parameters to Oracle

 creates a new version and writes the ClosePairCuts parameters to Oracle

 returns the number of TDC channels of a module
EXEC SQL BEGIN DECLARE SECTION;

 reads the calibration parameters and fill the MdcCalParRaw container

 creates a new version and writes the threshold parameters to Oracle

 creates a new version and writes the layer parameters to Oracle

 reads the tdc channel masks and fill the container

 creates a new version and writes the threshold parameters to Oracle

 sets the threshold version as the actual valid version
EXEC SQL BEGIN DECLARE SECTION;

 sets the channel mask version as the actual valid version
EXEC SQL BEGIN DECLARE SECTION;

 returns the last run id in the timerange where the threshold version was valid
EXEC SQL BEGIN DECLARE SECTION;

 returns the last run id in the timerange where the channel mask version was valid

 creates a new version and writes the lookup table to Oracle
