Returns the current state of several flags for `PetscInfo()` 
## Synopsis
```
#include "petscsys.h"

```
Not Collective


## Output Parameters

- ***infoEnabled -*** `PETSC_TRUE` if `PetscInfoAllow`(`PETSC_TRUE`) has been called
- ***classesSet -*** `PETSC_TRUE` if the list of classes to filter for has been set
- ***exclude -*** `PETSC_TRUE` if the class filtering for `PetscInfo()` is inverted
- ***locked -*** `PETSC_TRUE` if the list of classes to filter for has been locked
- ***commSelfFlag -*** Enum indicating whether `PetscInfo()` will print for communicators of size 1, any size != 1, or all
communicators





## Note
Initially commSelfFlag = `PETSC_INFO_COMM_ALL`
