## Synopsis
```

## Output parameter

- ***id -*** an identifier under which data can be stored

You must keep this value (for example in a global variable) in order to attach the data to an object or access in an object.

`PetscObjectCompose()` and  `PetscObjectQuery()` provide a way to attach any data to an object
