PetscMemcpy
Copies n bytes, beginning at location b, to the space beginning at location a. The two memory regions CANNOT overlap, use PetscMemmove() in that case.
Synopsis
PETSC_STATIC_INLINE PetscErrorCode PetscMemcpy(void *a,const void *b,size_t n)
Not Collective
Input Parameters
| b | - pointer to initial memory space
|
| n | - length (in bytes) of space to copy
|
Output Parameter
a -pointer to copy space
Compile Option
PETSC_PREFER_DCOPY_FOR_MEMCPY will cause the BLAS dcopy() routine to be used
for memory copies on double precision values.
PETSC_PREFER_COPY_FOR_MEMCPY will cause C code to be used
for memory copies on double precision values.
PETSC_PREFER_FORTRAN_FORMEMCPY will cause Fortran code to be used
for memory copies on double precision values.
Note
This routine is analogous to memcpy().
Developer Note: this is inlined for fastest performance
