PetscSpaceRegister

Adds a new PetscSpace implementation

Synopsis

#include "petscfe.h"  
PetscErrorCode PetscSpaceRegister(const char sname[], PetscErrorCode (*function)(PetscSpace))
Not Collective

Input Parameters

name - The name of a new user-defined creation routine
create_func - The creation routine for the implementation type

Notes

PetscSpaceRegister() may be called multiple times to add several user-defined types of PetscSpaces. The creation function is called when the type is set to 'name'.

Sample usage

    PetscSpaceRegister("my_space", MyPetscSpaceCreate);

Then, your PetscSpace type can be chosen with the procedural interface via

    PetscSpaceCreate(MPI_Comm, PetscSpace *);
    PetscSpaceSetType(PetscSpace, "my_space");
or at runtime via the option
    -petscspace_type my_space
