VecCreateSeqWithArray

Creates a standard,sequential array-style vector, where the user provides the array space to store the vector values.

Synopsis

#include "petscvec.h" 
PetscErrorCode  VecCreateSeqWithArray(MPI_Comm comm,PetscInt bs,PetscInt n,const PetscScalar array[],Vec *V)
Collective on MPI_Comm Many br

Input Parameter

comm - the communicator, should be PETSC_COMM_SELF Many br
bs - the block size Many br
n - the vector length Many br
array - memory where the vector elements are to be stored. Many br

Output Parameter

V -the vector Many br

Notes

Use VecDuplicate() or VecDuplicateVecs() to form additional vectors of the Many brsame type as an existing vector. Many br

If the user-provided array is NULL, then VecPlaceArray() can be used Many brat a later stage to SET the array for storing the vector values. Many br

PETSc does NOT free the array when the vector is destroyed via VecDestroy(). Many brThe user should not free the array until the vector is destroyed. Many br
