# DMDASNESSetObjectiveLocal
set a local residual evaluation function that operates on a local vector with `DMDA`
## Synopsis
```
#include "petscdmda.h"
#include "petscsnes.h"
PetscErrorCode DMDASNESSetObjectiveLocalVec(DM dm, DMDASNESObjectiveVec func, void *ctx)
```
Logically Collective
## Input Parameters
- ***dm -*** `DM` to associate callback with
- ***func -*** local objective evaluation
- ***ctx -*** optional context for local residual evaluation
## Calling sequence of `func`
```none
PetscErrorCode func(DMDALocalInfo *info, Vec x, PetscReal *ob, void *ctx);
```
- ***info -*** defines the subdomain to evaluate the residual on
- ***x -*** state vector at which to evaluate residual
- ***ob -*** eventual objective value
- ***ctx -*** optional context passed above
