# PCMGRegisterCoarseSpaceConstructor
Adds a method to the `PCMG` package for coarse space construction. 
## Synopsis
```
#include "petscksp.h" 
PetscErrorCode PCMGRegisterCoarseSpaceConstructor(const char name[], PetscErrorCode (*function)(PC, PetscInt, DM, KSP, PetscInt, Mat, Mat *))
```
Not Collective


## Input Parameters

- ***name     -*** name of the constructor
- ***function -*** constructor routine



## Calling sequence of `function`
```none
PetscErrorCode my_csp(PC pc, PetscInt l, DM dm, KSP smooth, PetscInt Nc, Mat initGuess, Mat *coarseSp)
```

- ***pc        -*** The `PC` object
- ***l         -*** The multigrid level, 0 is the coarse level
- ***dm        -*** The `DM` for this level
- ***smooth    -*** The level smoother
- ***Nc        -*** The size of the coarse space
- ***initGuess -*** Basis for an initial guess for the space
- ***coarseSp  -*** A basis for the computed coarse space





## Developer Note
How come this is not used by `PCGAMG`?
