PCSHELL#

Creates a new preconditioner class for use with a users own private data storage format and preconditioner application code

Usage#

       extern PetscErrorCode apply(PC,Vec,Vec);
       extern PetscErrorCode applyba(PC,PCSide,Vec,Vec,Vec);
       extern PetscErrorCode applytranspose(PC,Vec,Vec);
       extern PetscErrorCode setup(PC);
       extern PetscErrorCode destroy(PC);

       PCCreate(comm,&pc);
       PCSetType(pc,PCSHELL);
       PCShellSetContext(pc,ctx)
       PCShellSetApply(pc,apply);
       PCShellSetApplyBA(pc,applyba);               (optional)
       PCShellSetApplyTranspose(pc,applytranspose); (optional)
       PCShellSetSetUp(pc,setup);                   (optional)
       PCShellSetDestroy(pc,destroy);               (optional)

Note#

Information required for the preconditioner and its internal datastructures can be set with PCShellSetContext() and then accessed with PCShellGetContext() inside the routines provided above
