 * each analysis handler after each event. The method may be called
 * several times for each event - this may be checked by the analysis
 * handler by looking at the <code>ieve</code>, <code>loop</code> and
 * <code>state</code> arguments to the <code>analyze</code> method.
 *
 * Initialization of histograms etc. should be made in the
 * <code>doinitrun()</code> function, while writing out of histograms
 * and analysis results should be performed in the
 * <code>dofinish()</code> function.
