# DMTSGetForcingFunction
get `TS` forcing function evaluation function 
## Synopsis
```
#include "petscts.h" 
PetscErrorCode DMTSGetForcingFunction(DM dm, TSForcingFunction *f, void **ctx)
```
Not Collective


## Input Parameter

- ***dm -*** `DM` to be used with `TS`



## Output Parameters

- ***f -*** forcing function evaluation function; see `TSForcingFunction` for details
- ***ctx -*** context for solution evaluation





## Note
`TSSetForcingFunction()` is normally used, but it calls this function internally because the user context is actually
associated with the `DM`.  This makes the interface consistent regardless of whether the user interacts with a `DM` or
not. If `DM` took a more central role at some later date, this could become the primary method of setting the residual.
