of TOF data products.

• TofPacketReader/Writer - sequentially read/write TofPackets from/to a file on disk. -> upcoming: Will connect to a network socket

• RobinReader: Read (old) RB data files, where the file is simply a dump of the internal buffers (“RBEventMemoryView”).

• RBEventMemoryStreamer: Walk over “raw” RBEvents representations (“RBEventMemoryView”) and extract RBEvents
