PetscErrorCode MatGetState(Mat A, PetscObjectState *state)

Not Collective

Input Parameter#

  • A - the matrix

Output Parameter#

  • state - the object state

Object state is an integer which gets increased every time the object is changed. By saving and later querying the object state one can determine whether information about the object is still current.

See MatGetNonzeroState() to determine if the nonzero structure of the matrix has changed.
