Notes#
Virtually all PETSc functions return an error code. It is the callers responsibility to check
the value of the returned error code after each PETSc call to determine if any errors
occurred. A set of convenience macros (e.g. PetscCall()
, PetscCallVoid()
) are provided
for this purpose. Failing to properly check for errors is not supported, as errors may leave
PETSc in an undetermined state.
One can retrieve the error string corresponding to a particular error code using
PetscErrorMessage()
.
The user can also configure PETSc with the --with-strict-petscerrorcode
option to enable
compiler warnings when the returned error codes are not captured and checked. Users are
heavily encouraged to opt-in to this option, as it will become enabled by default in a
future release.
Developer Notes#
These are the generic error codes. These error codes are used in many different places in the
PETSc source code. The C-string versions are at defined in PetscErrorStrings[]
in
src/sys/error/err.c
, while the Fortran versions are defined in
src/sys/f90-mod/petscerror.h
. Any changes here must also be made in both locations.
