DMDAVecGetArrayDOF#

Returns a multiple dimension array that shares data with the underlying vector and is indexed using the global or local dimensions of a DMDA

Synopsis#

#include "petscdmda.h"   
PetscErrorCode DMDAVecGetArrayDOF(DM da, Vec vec, void *array)

Logically Collective

Input Parameters#

Output Parameter#

  • array - the array pointer

Notes#

Call DMDAVecRestoreArrayDOF() once you have finished accessing the vector entries.

In C, the indexing is “backwards” from what expects: array[k][j][i][DOF] NOT array[i][j][k][DOF]

The accessible indices are array[zs:zs+zm-1][ys:ys+ym-1][xs:xs+xm-1][0:ndof-1] where the values are obtained from DMDAGetCorners() for a global vector or DMDAGetGhostCorners() for a local vector.

Fortran Notes#

Use DMDAVecGetArrayF90() and pass for the array type PetscScalar,pointer :: array(:,…,:) of the appropriate dimension. For a DMDA created with a dof of 1 use the dimension of the DMDA, for a DMDA created with a dof greater than 1 use one more than the dimension of the DMDA.

The order of the indices is array(xs:xs+xm-1,ys:ys+ym-1,zs:zs+zm-1) (when ndof is 1) otherwise array(0:dof-1,xs:xs+xm-1,ys:ys+ym-1,zs:zs+zm-1) where the values are obtained from DMDAGetCorners() for a global vector or DMDAGetGhostCorners() for a local vector.
