VecViewExodusVertex

Write a Vec representing nodal values of some field in an exodusII file.

Synopsis

#include "petscdmmesh.h" 
PetscErrorCode VecViewExodusVertex(DM dm,Vec v,MPI_Comm comm,PetscInt exoid,PetscInt step,PetscInt exofield)
Collective on comm

The behavior differs depending on the size of comm

if size(comm) == 1 each processor writes its local vector into a separate file if size(comm) > 1, the values are sent to cpu0, and written in a single file

Input Parameters

dm - the DMMesh representing the mesh
v - the LOCAL vector of values to be saved (i.e. with ghost values) obtained with SectionRealCreateLocalVector. if v represents a field with several components, the block size must be set accordingly using VecSetBlockSize()
exoid - the id of the exodusII file (obtained with ex_open or ex_create)
step - the time step to write
exofield - the position in the exodus field of the first component

Interpolated meshes are not supported.
