Output Parameter

fdes -file descriptor Many br

Notes

For writable binary PetscViewers, the descriptor will only be valid for the Many brfirst processor in the communicator that shares the PetscViewer. For readable Many brfiles it will only be valid on nodes that have the file. If node 0 does not Many brhave the file it generates an error even if another node does have the file. Many br
