MatCreateSNESMF
Creates a matrix-free matrix context for use with a SNES solver. This matrix can be used as the Jacobian argument for the routine SNESSetJacobian(). See MatCreateMFFD() for details on how the finite difference computation is done.
Synopsis
#include "petscsnes.h"
PetscErrorCode MatCreateSNESMF(SNES snes,Mat *J)
Collective on SNES and Vec
Input Parameters
snes -the SNES context
Output Parameter
J -the matrix-free matrix
Warning
If MatMFFDSetBase() is ever called on jac then this routine will NO longer get
the x from the SNES object and MatMFFDSetBase() must from that point on be used to
change the base vector x.
Notes: The difference between this routine and MatCreateMFFD() is that this matrix
automatically gets the current base vector from the SNES object and not from an
explicit call to MatMFFDSetBase().
