PetscViewerHDF5GetBaseDimension2#
Vectors of 1 dimension (i.e. bs/dof is 1) will be saved in the HDF5 file with a dimension of 2.
Synopsis#
#include "petscviewerhdf5.h"
PetscErrorCode PetscViewerHDF5GetBaseDimension2(PetscViewer viewer, PetscBool *flg)
Logically Collective
Input Parameter#
viewer - the
PetscViewer, must bePETSCVIEWERHDF5
Output Parameter#
flg - if
PETSC_TRUEthe vector will always have at least a dimension of 2 even if that first dimension is of size 1
Note#
Setting this option allegedly makes code that reads the HDF5 in easier since they do not have a “special case” of a bs/dof of one when the dimension is lower. Others think the option is crazy.
