MeshGetMatrix

Creates a matrix with the correct parallel layout required for computing the Jacobian on a function defined using the informatin in Mesh.

Synopsis

#include "petscmesh.h"   
PetscErrorCode PETSCDM_DLLEXPORT MeshGetMatrix(Mesh mesh, MatType mtype, Mat *J)
Collective on Mesh

Input Parameter

mesh - the mesh object
mtype - Supported types are MATSEQAIJ, MATMPIAIJ, MATSEQBAIJ, MATMPIBAIJ, MATSEQSBAIJ, MATMPISBAIJ, or any type which inherits from one of these (such as MATAIJ, MATLUSOL, etc.).

Output Parameters

J -matrix with the correct nonzero preallocation (obviously without the correct Jacobian values)

Notes: This properly preallocates the number of nonzeros in the sparse matrix so you do not need to do it yourself.
