PetscOptionsBoundedReal#
Gets a PetscReal value greater than or equal to a given bound for a particular option in the database.
Synopsis#
#include <petscoptions.h>
PetscErrorCode PetscOptionsBoundedReal(const char opt[], const char text[], const char man[], PetscReal currentvalue, PetscReal *value, PetscBool *set, PetscReal bound)
Logically Collective on the communicator passed in PetscOptionsBegin()
Input Parameters#
opt - option name
text - short string that describes the option
man - manual page with additional information on option
currentvalue - the current value; caller is responsible for setting this value correctly. Normally this is done with either
PetscOptionsBoundedReal(..., obj->value, &obj->value, ...)
or
value = defaultvalue
PetscOptionsBoundedReal(..., value, &value, &set, ...);
if (set) {
bound - the requested value should be greater than or equal to this bound or an error is generated
Output Parameters#
value - the real value to return
set -
PETSC_TRUEif found, elsePETSC_FALSE
Notes#
If the user does not supply the option at all value is NOT changed. Thus
you should ALWAYS initialize value if you access it without first checking that set is PETSC_TRUE.
The currentvalue passed into this routine does not get transferred to the output value variable automatically.
Must be used between a PetscOptionsBegin() and a PetscOptionsEnd()
