Besides the many bug fixes comes a fairly large update in how batch jobs are handled (now with less chance to DDOS the rcdb servers). It is still recommended that you run batch with sqlite. To aid in this, SQLITEPATH has been split and relabled to ccdbSQLITEPATH and rcdbSQLITEPATH to handle both sqlite objects. The ordering of operations within MakeMC has been changed to better utilize SQLite as well as to utilize the newest feature...



BGRate_calc: Now when using either the BeamPhotons or TagOnly backgrounds MCwrapper will invoke BGRate_calc, a new executable that will calculate BGRate based on the parameters of the Simulation. This means that when running over a run range with one of these background types each run will get the "proper" BGRate without all the hassle of dealing with each run explicitly. This can still be overwritten via the colon option in MC.config.

additionally bggen_jpsi and gen_ee have been added with the disclaimer that gen_ee appears to be broken. When this is patched generator side it should begin functioning nominally in MCwrapper without intervention on the wrapper's behalf
