PetscAssert#
Assert that a particular condition is true
Synopsis#
#include <petscerror.h>
void PetscAssert(bool cond, MPI_Comm comm, PetscErrorCode ierr, const char *message, ...)
Collective; No Fortran Support
Input Parameters#
cond - The boolean condition
comm - The communicator on which the check can be collective on
ierr - A nonzero error code, see include/petscerror.h for the complete list
message - Error message in printf format
Notes#
Equivalent to PetscCheck() if debugging is enabled, and PetscAssume(cond) otherwise.
See PetscCheck() for usage and behaviour.
This is needed instead of simply using assert() because this correctly handles the collective nature of errors under MPI
