PetscOptionsBool
Determines if a particular option is in the database with a true or false
Synopsis
#include "petscsys.h"
PetscErrorCode PetscOptionsBool_Private(PetscOptionItems *PetscOptionsObject,const char opt[],const char text[],const char man[],PetscBool currentvalue,PetscBool *flg,PetscBool *set)
Logically Collective on the communicator passed in PetscOptionsBegin()
Input Parameters
| opt | - option name
|
| text | - short string that describes the option
|
| man | - manual page with additional information on option
|
| currentvalue | - the current value
|
Output Parameter
Notes
TRUE, true, YES, yes, nostring, and 1 all translate to PETSC_TRUE
FALSE, false, NO, no, and 0 all translate to PETSC_FALSE
If the option is given, but no value is provided, then flg and set are both given the value PETSC_TRUE. That is -requested_bool
is equivalent to -requested_bool true
If the user does not supply the option at all flg is NOT changed. Thus
you should ALWAYS initialize the flg if you access it without first checking if the set flag is true.
Must be between a PetscOptionsBegin() and a PetscOptionsEnd()
